Undoubtedly my most important relationship (other than my relationship with Christ) is my relationship with my wife, Rachel.  One of my goals for our relationship is that I would work on my temper.  This is something that I have had a problem with in the past but had seemingly dealt with.  It seems to have come back in the past few weeks, and so my goal for our relationship in the beginning of 2009  is that I would crucify this.  I don’t want to just suppress my temper; I want to avoid letting things bother me in the  first place.

Other people with whom I want to continue to foster deeper relationships this year include Dan Kyser, Jeff Johnson, Darren Cogan, and Tony K.

Who are you building relationships with this year?
