Thus goes a quote I picked up from Pierre Marx of Semex SA on a recent marketing trip to the thoroughly glorious country of South Africa. On a radiant spring day in May like today here in Ontario, Canada-sun, clear skies and not much wind-it is so easy to believe that everyday is indeed a feast! Pierre's quote ties in perfectly with a quote from a rather Good Book that says: "But he who is of a merry heart has a continual feast!!"
Days like today prove a statement from our Universal Queen Mother of the Jersey Breed Ann(i)e Perchard at La Ferme on Jersey, the home of the breed. The phrase I learned from our beloved Annie is that "May is the Queen of the year!" Those who live in the northern hemisphere will be able to relate to the sentiment behind that quote!
So, what does this have to do with the Jersey breed or am I just exercising my OTT (over the top) extreme passion for writing and rambling? :-)
Actually in the Jersey breed in Canada these days every day is indeed a true and rich feast! Things are happening now that are either exceedingly rare or unique in the 106 year history of Jersey Canada! Recently we processed four new memberships in a 24 hour period! That is uncommon to say the least! Based on our historically high 2006 memberships that is a .4 of 1% increase in membership in 24 hours!
We are awaiting the unveiling of our new true type model and have just had some powerhouse, blockbuster committee meetings these past two weeks! These committees are aggressively developing input for our Strategic Planning Committee who will create a proposed plan for the board over the next five months. It is exciting to be part of the energy that overflows at these meetings! So much positive, crackling energy abounds! So much hope and desire for more and better things for the breed are expressed!!
The long and short of it is that Jersey Canada intends to be around for a good long time as we work with the Jersey breed to usher in a good, good future! Every day truly is a feast of new ideas, possibilities, opportunities, information that can be used for action and hope! Let us be open to all this and then run with it! Enjoy the scrumptious and delectable feast that awaits you every morning and all day long!!!
High on life and spring! RGG
