Thank you for this post Linda-- I could not have said it better myself. In fact, I could not have said it-- only because I do not have your unique life experience. You speak from the heart as informed by the mind, a powerful combination. Your former teacher is proud -- and loves learning from her new colleague! Thanks again.
