Thought I would post this collage done by my aunt who died some years ago in her late 90′s. After a life spent teaching (she was the first high school teacher of Russian in the U.S.), she took up art in her 70′s, becoming locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally noted by the time she died. She was alert and still creating in her last year of life. Here is her story. So if you think your life isn’t amounting to as much as you’d like it to, this is one example of how we can begin any time a whole new adventure.
Deep Thought: I believe in making the world safe for our children, but not our children’s children, because I don’t think children should be having sex.
Today I am grateful for: Hot water
