“The world is NOT your oyster….the world IS an oyster” Its tradition here to shuck a case of oysters around the holidays. This year, Raspberry Points. I was reminded of a conversation with a friend about the above saying. He contends that the world isn’t a beautiful, briny shucked oyster served on a platter of ice. It’s the hard, sharp closed oyster waiting to be extracted from its shell. You need the right tools, the right plan and effort to succeed. You may cut yourself in the process if not careful, but the reward is well worth the effort. The world is an oyster…..I like that.
