Thank you for all your thoughtful comments. I am thoroughly enjoying your writing. I especially like your views on teaching. I work in an art studio where trained working artists collaborate with people with disabilities to create work to sell, and an opportunity to feel the joy of self expression. I am inspired every day by individuals who are of a population that is undervalued and overlooked by society. It is wonderful to read about your work. I intend to read all your chapters. I sure hope Santa has been reading too!
