Your comments are humbling. Love indeed is always the answer. I wrote something about this a year ago, which you might like to read at your leisure. It connects to my twentieth year of teaching The Catcher in the Rye to ninth graders at GCDS. https://slkelly.org/2015/10/08/growing-old-with-holden-2/

I also think you’d enjoy reading this one as well. https://slkelly.org/2016/04/08/liz-conquers-fear/

All the best. Shaun

It was exquisite! Thank you for those healing words as you clearly communicate how the power of every thought, word, and action can either elevate the consciousness of the planet or take it down. Choosing love over fear, peace over aggression are the things that will empower us and generate power through each other. Becoming conscious of the responsibilities inherent in the powers of our choices become the core of our journey as we find ways to align ourselves with the truth! With deepest gratitude and appreciation for your presence as a teacher, healer, community member and human being!

As it happens, I listened to a lot of music last night, including Joni Mitchell, and then read.

It was off the top of my head, and it came from the heart. I sometimes feel like Brian Wilson, “I just wasn’t made for these times.” Cheers. Shaun

It is exactly what I would have written were I as erudite, eloquent and assured as this shows you to be.
