a first time you really felt like a grown up 

A Great Question – 

A second grade situation. My sister was in kindergarten and for some reason a nun asked me to walk her home which was almost a mile. I had two older brothers in school and don’t know why they weren’t asked. On the way a car stopped to offer us a ride. My sister ran from the car. I hesitated to see if I could recognize the driver and ran toward my sister when I didn’t.

When was the first time you really felt like a grown up (if ever)?

a million dollars to give away  

A Recipient To Receive It – 

A charity that is not involved with social justice. Is it possible? I think not. A credit union may be the best way to get money to those who need it but are not just looking for a handout. I would give it to those who won’t just give it away but will loan it to those who need it.

A Beautiful Creation – 

A sight or sound. A musical. Song and dance. Gilbert and Sullivan for The Pirates of Penzance. Andrew Loyd Weber for so many great musicals. The most beautiful thing I ever read? “To live in the hearts we leave behind is not to die.” by Thomas Campbell.
