I once had* a mag, and your words were very inspiring. You’re the shit, keep up the fantastic work. – Victor Walker, [email protected] (Jonesboro, GA) JB, I just read your 2 Cents for the May 2006 issue. This really hit* home: “Sometimes you get so caught up in the daily grind that you forget what you were working towards in the first place.” I don’t usually write or respond to editorials (in fact, I never have), but your words inspired me to pick up my blackberry and just start typing. Your words also forced me to reflect on my daily grind and accom- plishments over the past few years. I too stand a different person and for me it’s not about the end result of the money or the fame, it’s about the process of getting there! Keep pushing and remaining true to your grind. There will always be setbacks and obstacles in the way, but remember, it’s about the process of getting there that makes it all worth it! – Albert “Big Al” Sye, [email protected] * Man!
