So we're keeping Thanksgiving simple this year and focusing on being a family. The bird's in the oven and I have a few minutes to reflect on what I'm truly thankful for. It's been a year full of more change than I can ever remember. It seems that in most every area of my life (work, hockey, community) there has been drastic change. Change is always hard because it upsets the balance of things; it stretches (and stresses) me.

However, in every aspect of change in my life, it's a chosen path that is for the positive.
