Jon and Henry's Inspiration










Upon moving to Portland Oregon in 1996 my good and long time friend, Jon Secrest, gave me a book to read - "Walden" by Henry David Thoreau - A fortuitous thing since I had not read it  but it was where unknowingly one of my favorite quotes of all time had been hatched from.

 Now I have read it and reread it and I'm the better for it.It has led me back to visit all the classic's I missed my appointments with to read those many years ago.

"If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams and endeavors to live the life they imagined, they will meet with success unexpected in common hours"

Thank you Jon
