Happy Thanksgiving To All Those Who Believed In Spite of The Naysayers

While I am thankful for many things in my life, this Thanksgiving I wanted to give thanks for all those who have overcome those brilliant and highly decorated minds who were so sure that what you wanted to do simply could not be done.
