Beautifully written Nancy,
That was so wonderful, and it made me think about those around me at work and in medium, and in Refresh the Soul.
My whole "being" is to be around people I consider family. I am too old for drama, and too old to have hate in my heart..
However, teaching college students can take me out of my comfort zone, and I LOVE it. Helping them with real life situations and being a counsler to them, just makes my day, and makes me proud.
My kids, slang for my college kids can call me anytime they want, and they do.
I just tell them I can help you in many ways, but I will not post bail, for any of you. They laugh...
Coming back to see me after graduation, wearing their uniforms, just to say thank you, is all I need.
