Acknowledgments

My acknowledgment list is a very long and philosophical one. It includes everybody who has ever believed in me and provided me with one opportunity or another to experience various aspects of my life up to this point. It includes everybody I have ever had any kind of direct or indirect contact with. It includes everyone I have ever had a conversation with. It includes everybody I have ever looked at. It includes everyone who has ever given to or taken away from me. You have all contributed to and enriched my life. I am me because of you. You know who you are, and I thank you.
