As a “retirement career,” my mother volunteered and taught ESL classes to adult immigrants. She was never so happy. She loved every single one of her students and helped along the path to citizenship. She worked with a nun, Sister Joyce, who had taught in Catholic schools. Sister Joyce argued vehemently against the school voucher programs every time they came up. She felt they were the ultimate expression of selfishness and greed. She said taking money out of public education was failing to care of other people who may not look or act like you, or even agree with you, which is a moral failure.
Why does every post of yours make me cry?
I'm sorry! But also glad to connect with a fellow empath.
Absolutely Slade. Thank you. You stir up some very deep feelings and thoughts in this 71 year old brain.
Likewise! It just hits ❤️

I love your cooking as much as your messages. Thank you.
