Happy Birthday from Calvin & Hobbes and me - to all of you.

Tomorrow is my 32nd birthday, and the older I get, the more I wax sentimental.

I spent the past 10 days in Austin working with my colleagues at The Dachis Group, participating in our Social Business Summit 2010 conference last week, and attending SXSW.

It was a great time had by all - Social Business Design was bar-none the BEST content around SXSW. SXSW was a blast - not so much for the content but more because I met and befriended some amazing people throughout my 10 days in Austin.

A lot of wonderful personal growth and opportunity identification took place during my latest stay in Austin and I am thankful.

Coming back from Austin to this beautiful weather in Boston and seeing this Calvin & Hobbes cartoon I am reminded that we do live in a magical world - and adventure waits on every corner. We just need to be attuned to it and ‘opportunity obsessed’ to quote my Babson classmates.

So to all of you explorers and adventurers who I consider kinsmen on this crazy entrepreneurial journey, I salute you. To my new friends I met and made over these past 10 days and overall during my time in Austin, your presence has been life-giving and I have learned a lot. And my friends and family - much love and much thanks.

My birthday wish for all of you is that you find meaning and resonance in whatever you do - and find yourself surrounded by infinite possibility and opportunity.

    Hobbes always cheers me up. Even though this was the last strip by Bill Waterson.
