Happy 2010 everyone and I hope that your start to the new decade has been brilliant so far. Being snowed in for several days this month gave me the unique opportunity to catch up in the office and focus on new projects, in addition to bringing the programme together for my residential seminar NR Scarborough in February. I am always excited about this annual event as we always have a fab time and welcome old friends and new.
What I did notice about the extraordinary weather is that despite the disruption it caused for many, it seemed to bring people together on many levels.
News reports of rallying round to help neighbours and the elderly as well as the child in many of us building their own community snowmen, to me were heartwarming. In a world where time and materialism threaten the very existence of family life there were those, myself included, who had no option but to not go to work, and to just stay home together, proving to us once again that whatever man may create, mother nature really is the boss.
On that note also our thoughts as a nation have been with those affected by the devastation in Haiti. May it be a lesson to us all that however many challenges our lives give us, and however much we grumble about our lot,we are truly blessed by comparison.
