"Failure's hard, but success is far more dangerous. If you're successful at the wrong thing, the mix of praise and money and opportunity can lock you in forever." ~Po Bronson

I rarely go to Starbucks, but I was having a tough day at work and decided to go downstairs to get some tea and free myself for a moment. I ordered a green tea and found the above quote printed on the cup.

    I wish I could have been there with you for one of your last "Tea Times" at that Starbucks...it's so sobering to think about how quickly and drastically things change. It seems like just yesterday I was still "Seedorf" and we were heading to our daily afternoon tea time. Now we're going to be worlds apart...but what a fantastic quote and an exciting future for you!

    Thanks Erika! I wish we could have had one last tea time together... We will have to do a lot of tea time catch-up when you visit me in Taiwan :) You are so right about how quickly things change. It's exciting though when you think back to us starting out as Exec assistants... Now both heading back to school. It feels great… Evil twins forever!
