LOVE being able to see and hear you!

We don't have to do what we don't want to do, but we are also free to change our mind ... to do what we once didn't want to do.

Very funny! And lovely to see your lovely self on screen. It's been too long since I saw and heard you....
What a great story (and you look beautiful, by the way).

I always entered those contests too because I felt like I should...and the worst poem I ever wrote won the contest once in middle school. I felt like such a fake accepting that award...and I think about that sometimes, and it helps me write what I truly need to write instead of what I "should."
This made me smile...wonderful story...wonderful moral to the story...and it was also fantastic to "see you."
