It's official. Changes are going on all around me. Not only is the old Crossroads Mall gone, but Trolley Square is getting a major renovation as well. The "first enclosed mall west of the Mississippi" aka Cottonwood Mall is getting demolished for new retail and housing. Yesterday in the paper they revealed the new downtown Sugarhouse plans (link enclosed). I'm not so sure how I feel about this particular change....yet. Last but not least, the freeway near my home (I-80) is getting torn up and rebuilt.
I couldn't even begin to compare this city to the one I moved back to only 3 years ago, let alone the one of my youth. Changes are happening, and they are happening fast.

Favorite Quotes
"Success is not the key to happiness.
Happiness is the key to success.
If you love what you are doing,
you will be successful."
- Albert Schweitzer
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
- Mark Twain
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won’t feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
-Used by Nelson Mandela in his 1994 inaugural speech
