There is no greater gift you can give someone than the gift of health. Really, if you think about it, outside of family, everything else is secondary to your physical and mental well-being.

This is a gift I have received, and like the rest of my fellow questers, I am eternally grateful to so many people for allowing me to be a part of the past ten weeks.

Thank you to The Switch and Mainetoday.com, for putting this promotion together. What a win-win-win program! I could probably add a few more "win's" there for all of the people and businesses that have or hopefully will benefit from this. For what I have gotten out of it, I'll remain a faithful reader and a loyal spokesperson for MaineToday.com, The Landing, and Head Games, as well as a subscriber and committed patron.

The relationships forged throughout this "Quest" transcend any other benefits that may be reaped from this experiment. They are real, and hopefully long-lasting. Deanna and Catherine from The Landing will forever be very special to me; without their willingness and guidance, I would not have experienced what I have over the past ten weeks. To all of the wonderful instructors, your guidance, acceptance, and patience reminds me to always strive to be a better person, to myself and to others.

To my fellow questers; it's been a very long time since I really felt part of a team. Of course, there are silly "teams" at work, recreational sports, and so on, but nothing with such a sense of true common goal as we have shared. We came together from individuals as about as diverse as your going to find in Maine to form a true team. Each with different backgrounds, interests, and motivations, by the time week four or five came around, we were all there to work, support, sweat, and celebrate each other together. You guys are awesome, and it's been my pleasure to experience this with all of you.

And to you readers, thanks for coming along for the ride. I hope our words have inspired and motivated you to start out on your own quest. If it has, please make The Landing part of your journey. Your first class is free, tell them I sent you. It may be called The Landing, but for me, it's been more of a springboard.
