Sabbatical

Dear Long Lost Reader,
I am back. After one year and ten days, consider this my second go round at blogging.  I took a leave of absence, unbeknownst to all of you, during my year long work at UCSD.  I have since come back to my senses and established my focus back on developing my company Mining Gems and to go deeper in meditating on what is transformative and what isn't.  In my hopes to make regular postings, I am taking a lesson from my physical workout routine - start small and develop a pattern over time that engages me and fulfills long-term goals without being overwhelming.  So, it is with that sentiment that I begin anew.
Sincerely,
Mark
