Joy, It is great to stay in touch in this way. Thanks! I like what I heard so far. Clinton says what I have tried to get across to my students for decades, that we should care about both the seen and the unseen people in our lives. The more one ponders this idea, the more profound and far reaching it becomes. Our conne...ctions with each other reach across the globe and into tucked-away corners of the world. The lives of the custodians at IHS alone are interesting enough to write a book about. Some of them have, beyond what many people would imagine, lived heroic lives. Look forward to seeing the film!
