You know what the first rule of flying is?
Love.
You can learn all the math in the 'verse,
but you take a boat in the air that you don't love,
she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of worlds.
And love keeps her in the air when she ought to fall down...
tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens.
Makes her a home.
— Mal, Firefly/Serenity

My big dream is to build a self-sustaining ecosystem of hope and empowerment before I die.
Here’s a sketched map of the workings as I envisioned them in 2016…
Which was overly complicated and really confusing!
It’s a hard learned truth that,
“Most people overestimate what they can achieve in a year and underestimate what they can achieve in ten years.”
This is what I’ve been building to get us self-sufficient as a nonprofit org by 2035.
Thank you to everyone who has helped us get where we are!

27 Shots. That’s It. What Back to the Future Teaches Us About Doing Less… Better.
