Happy Holidays Genius Readers!

This week would not be complete if I didn’t revisit John Lennon’s most profound holiday greeting: 

"There are two basic motivating forces: Fear and Love.When we are afraid, we pull back from life.When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer.I want to wish everyone happy holidays and a happy new year! Let’s hope it’s a good one without any fear." —John Lennon

If you were thinking about making a contribution this year but you're not sure where to give, please consider sending a donation to the  Westminster Community Care Center, where my awesome wife Nancy contributed many tireless hours as a volunteer nurse. This is a private, non-profit organization serving the working poor and uninsured of Ventura County, California. They also serve as a training site for high school students considering careers in healthcare. Click here to contribute. Thank you so much for doing that, it means a lot!

Have a smart, safe, and fun holiday!Michael
