It's true--and I say it often--that there are many paths to the same destination (and enlightment is a good one), no one path necessarily "right" or "best."<br /><br />Even a long life is a short one... If you haven't watched the commencement video (It's a TED talk), take a look.

I do love reading about yours, and others. I am so happy you took your classes, found the way to plot and continue to share your books with us. <br />The pictorials of the cats on fb cracks me up...5 more years and my youngest goes to college, I'm counting down!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11129662082248482002noreply@blogger.com
