It has been real…

…I say that with every element in my being about my time here in Ogilvy. I have learned from everyone & every moment. Whether it was the fun/crazy O-bar /Christmas party moments or the tough, nerve wrecking, “you can go faint!” and pull-my-hair-out deadline/pitch moments – I have always taken something positive with me.

If I have not shown my appreciation to those who taught, guided, challenged, and stretched me beyond my capabilities…. if I have not shown my appreciation for the friendships that I have been blessed to know in my time here… I am indeed apologetic & I take this opportunity to say thank you and I ask God keep our friendship(s) on a positive path of growth.

I hate the word farewell mainly because the world is such a small place and we are bound to bump into each other at some point – so I’d rather say see you again some time.

I leave you with this thought, “It’s necessary to take risks, and to follow certain paths whilst abandoning others. If you try to follow every possible path you will end up following none. Face your path with courage; don’t be scared of people’s criticism – and, above all, don’t let yourself get paralyzed by your own criticism. No one is able to choose without fear…” Collection of quotes from the book Brida by Paulo Coelho (acclaimed author of The Alchemist).
