The next +1.

Everyday there is a urge to go a little further, a little deeper, a little more invested in yourself.

Once every 100 days there appears a number that is awesome and celebrated, but it is the day after, the day everything goes back to “normal” that is more important than those zeros.

It is the next +1. The - - 01. It’s just a little sexier than the day before. 

You said this is not the end but another beginning. All beginnings come from some other beginnings end.

Today is 1,827 days.... 5 years Quit.

I haven’t missed a day of roll yet, come close a few times, but something or someone always pulls me back. For that I am thankful and blessed.

Thank you KTC

Catch you on roll in the AM

You rock, my friend.  It is hard to imagine KTC without your presence and passion.
