It’s true! You can lose your marbles in a good way. Teaching kindergarten taught me that on an almost daily basis. :D

Joy, you write beautifully. It never fails to amaze me how we can find such love, acceptance and companionship amongst strangers. It truly is a gift from God. Thank you for sharing.

Joy!?!? Girl can WRITE!! That was gorgeous. Stunning. Jeff, thanks for lifting her voice. Now, look up “Gate A-4”—one of my favorite poems that this work reminds me of.

A beautifully simple example of non-accusatory loving acceptance and collaboration toward better understanding. Would that the world could figure that out!
