Gratitude for People Day 7

I am grateful for Merryn and James. They make me see the world through kids’ eyes. They challenge me to be better, more understanding and patient. To not give up on love. I am crazy about them, my sweethearts. 

Gratitude for People Day 6

I am grateful for my parents. They are my rock, my everything. Everything I value most—reading, taking care of my body and health, being wise with money, political activism, integrity, caring for others, comes from them. I am also grateful for Yenny Alemán, a wonderful student I had at TC Williams for summer school and my one year there. She just popped up on Facebook and we talked a little last night.
