As we embark upon a New Year and leave 2008 behind let us remember that none of this would be possible without the ones that trekked the hard road and laid down the foundation for us to hang our hats on. Look at the coming year as an open opportunity. The slate is clean, no marks upon the days. This is an open window that you can begin to make your mark upon the lives of thousands of patients, other collegues and souls that may or may not have heard what Specific ChiropracTIC is. You have the responsibility to tell the story in the way it was written or to tell your 'version' of the story, the later being the one that is the easiest to do, yet is not always the most appropriate. If you stay to the wording of the original writings, even tho more difficult, you will preserve the foundation and allow others to build upon the correct structure. If you use your version for whatever reason, others can only build upon your story, and not THE story.
Tell THE story, if you dont know THE story, ask someone who does. Pick up a book and read THE story, pass the book along to someone who does not know, yet is aspiring to know. Don't use your words, RESPECT the original writing and author enough to use the words he chose. For to use your words is showing dis-respect to the author.
Remember when the clock strikes midnight, the slate is clean for the new year, and each choice from that minute on you make is the what will determine how much you respect the principle, the story, the author and all of the ones who have preserved and protected the truth of what we know as Specific TIC.
Happy New Year !
