City of Ida Grove issued the following announcement on Jan. 1.
Mayor Devlun Whiteing would like to wish city staff and the citizens of Ida Grove a Happy New Year. So excited for 2020 working with the council and staff to make Ida Grove grow and get better. So grateful for all of them. Found this quote I’d like to share with everyone.
“I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes.
Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're Doing Something.
So that's my wish for you, and all of us, and my wish for myself. Make New Mistakes. Make glorious, amazing mistakes. Make mistakes nobody's ever made before. Don't freeze, don't stop, don't worry that it isn't good enough, or it isn't perfect, whatever it is: art, or love, or work or family or life.
Whatever it is you're scared of doing, Do it.
Make your mistakes, next year and forever.” Neil Gaiman.
Happy New Year
Mayor Whiteing
