As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another—proverb
Have you ever butted heads with someone and yet valued it an inspiring experience? And while you may have very well left the encounter exhausted, you also left satisfied, dare I say even regenerated by it— equipped with new knowledge, enhanced insight and increased sensitivity?
Those gems of experiences are rare but indeed filled with immense value. The patterns, regardless of the specific parties involved, often remain quite similar: vested interests at play and a dynamic at times fraught with tension gently giving way to an overarching aim of producing meaningful results.

Every time I visit a U.S. city, I try to find a path, park or greenway so I can be in nature and see the city from a different angle. Without doubt, these parks and pathways are filled with local citizens enjoying these outdoor resources.
Viable parks, waterways and greenways make cities come alive. They are vital to not only the ecosystem, but the health of the city – attracting talent, creating fitness options, and offering outdoor learning labs for children and families. For FedEx, these spaces provide communities with safe places for children to play, reduce carbon and create communities that will prosper.
