Happy 70th to one of the wisest men I know! Thankful for his mentorship, leadership, and thoughtfulness! He taught me how to instead of sharing my thoughts to ask more questions! Questions build bridges, cross boundaries, and establish common space for thoughtful discussion and discernment. Here is to you Stuart Sprague! #HappyBirthday
