					<description><![CDATA[I wish you and your family much success. 

It seems that your work, whether film-making or sailing, serves to improve and enhance the lives of others.  And increase the net balance of happiness. That is something that most people cannot claim. I&#039;m kind of surprised that it is even possible.

Yours truly,
L. E.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Sorry to read that you are not making films anymore, but I was wondering how you would make it work. The landscape of digital media does not seem very lucrative for artists. 

I&#039;m glad you found something that works for you. It also seems quite beautiful. kudos to you!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I appreciate the complexity of the situation you described. I guess you could have held your tongue and spoken to him later. But I did something similar when I was young and it cost me a job. I don&#039;t regret it. It taught me that you don&#039;t get to hold your principles for free. It costs.

Almost 30 years later, I was offered a job with Jane&#039;s Defense Weekly. The money was astronomical, but I turned it down. It was easy to walk away - I knew it would cost me, but I had learned that this was the way of the world.

Many people expect that it will be easy and comfortable to hold on to their principles. When it turns out to be painful, they&#039;re shocked. I appreciate the opportunity I had to learn that early.]]></description>
