"Mr. Protect and Preserve:" For Where We’re Going

By alphaspirit.it @ Shutterstock.com

In my conversations with you, we go through the lay of the land—where we’ve been, where we are, and where we’re going. Two out of three are facts—history. But that last one, where we’re going, isn’t. Hey, Your Survival Guy will take two out of three any day. I know what it felt like on the front lines, working through the past, talking about the present, and planning for the future. As one of you commented yesterday, you’re “Mr. Protect and Preserve,” a badge I wear proudly.
