If you do nothing else today I hope you'll go over to Katie's blog and read what she has to say about serving others. This is what happens to many women at a certain age; along with many other things we see our own mortality and the futility of selfish goals - we take note of the vast joy that flows in when we help others. She says it so beautifully. (Photo above of myself speaking to a group of future artists at a local high school.)

Judy, this (THIS) is my dream -- to teach high schoolers (boys and girls) to journal, visually, in written form, whatever ... I'm in the process right now of learning what actual qualifications I need to have to set foot on the premises, teacher certification, whatever, or if I can just be a 'volunteer' and plant myself in a room with goodies and supplies. These 2 pictures of you will really REALLY help my visualization process.
