and more interesting place,” Marti adds, “and we all need to be involved, in one way or the other, in the continued push forward. To paraphrase T.S. Eliot, we must not cease from our pursuits of exploration, and at the end of all our exploring, we will know more about ourselves and where we fi rst started. Some days it does feel like an exploration in uncharted waters, and I couldn’t be happier.”
