Dedication

I dedicate this magazine to Jack Strue, a good friend of mine. As our friendship has grown stronger, we’ve learned a lot about each other. I have seen the way Jack problem solves, and I’d like to recognize him, as he and I do it in a very similar way. We both tend to ignore our problems because of a fear of taking the initiative. The way Jack talks to me about something bothering him, tells me he struggles with addressing his issues. Of course, this isn’t a bad thing, it just won’t solve his problems as quickly as possible. I’ve learned that addressing your struggles aids in relief, more than disregarding them. I hope Jack can learn this too.
