Land Ahoy, submitted!

The long journey has culminated in clicking the "submit" button last night on my first (and hopefully only!) graduate school application to the Natural Resources Science and Management Program at the U of M. Hurray! I thought this quote was applicable-- it encouraged me very much along the way....

“Without goals, and plans to reach them, you are like a ship that has set sail with no destination.”
—Fitzhugh Dodson

The journey is incredibly important, yet it stagnates if a goal (or even a direction) is not identified. It's definitely not easy. But it takes small steps a day at a time, combined with big dreams and loads of faith.
