“There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One of these is roots, the other, wings.”
— Hodding Carter
I named my blog after this quotation because I feel like this year will be a test of my wings. Not sure if I really have strong roots, but maybe I’ll figure them out after being away from where I came from.

Your wings will take you far and hopefully you’ll find that your roots are in fact strong — strong enough to bring you back to us from time to time.
