I say, \u201cThat\u2019s like asking me which of my three sons is my favorite.  I love them all the same.\u201d  But upon reflection, that isn\u2019t exactly true\u2014at least when it comes to my RMIT friends.  Cole, Chance and Charles\u2014you\u2019re all still equal in my eyes and in my heart.  When it comes to my RMITs, however, there were many whom I found more interesting than most, some that were more entertaining, some that were more inspiring than others, and some who were just so nice and helpful that you had to love them just a little bit more because of the sheer size of their hearts.  But I am not crazy enough to name one or even a handful in public.  I\u2019m so grateful to them all. Truthfully, for me, more than the individual experience, as powerful as those were, it was the  collective knowledge, insight and wisdom that changed my life\u2014simply the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. That\u2019s what makes my book so special, I think.  But you will be the judge of that.  And while you\u2019re at it\u2014email me the name of your favorite RMIT and I\u2019ll pass along the results.  It won\u2019t be just our little secret.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When it comes to my RMITs, however, there were many whom I found more interesting than most, some that were more entertaining, some that were more inspiring than others, and some who were just so nice and helpful that you had to love them just a little bit more because of the sheer size of their hearts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[8],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.richestmanintown.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/739"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.richestmanintown.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.richestmanintown.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.richestmanintown.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.richestmanintown.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=739"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"http:\/\/www.richestmanintown.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/739\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":746,"href":"http:\/\/www.richestmanintown.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/739\/revisions\/746"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.richestmanintown.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=739"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.richestmanintown.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=739"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.richestmanintown.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=739"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
