Independent After-Thoughts
Found this from four years ago while cleaning up some of the debris from an archive explosion and found it strangely relevant to the notion of independence.
In thinking about my professional life and the career paths that lie ahead I am fearful primarily of compromising the set of values that have come to define me or that I hope one day will define me. I’m afraid of what I might become without them and what I may never be given the opportunity to become because of them. I am too young a professional to slow down but I wonder how much older I can become and how much farther down the path I can stroll before it is too late to turn around.

I miss all my compadres at my former employer, but I am so glad I made the career change when I did.
