  • I remember Alan O the music teacher. I have always wondered where he is at now? I remember he was always fun in class.

    I've been lucky enough to work with public for many years in a small town. Characters full of character!

    But..these characters also taught me valuable lessons: I learned patience, because not everyone was always on my pace. Forgiveness for some being short tempered, later finding out they had good reason to be. Compassion taught me that even though I thought I had it rough; I actually didn't and truly wondered how others made it. Humility because I'm never perfect, and not always right and grief because some decisions are permanent.

    I totally agree with you, life is a Carousel. Those that choose to stick it out and ride with us, only add to our ride. The ones who chose to get off; are missed.
