The Student becomes the teacher


Confused? You won't be.

It's so nice to be here again as caregiver.I have treasured my time with Carol as much as I did all those years ago when we lived so close and spent so much of our time together.

But to explain my first comment. Each time I've been here I have brought art and craft projects to get the creative juices flowing and lift Carol's spirits.

( Of course Carol's spirits haven't needed much lifting through most of this, she is the one that lifts all of our spirits)

That being said I'll tell you what happened this time. Carol taught me an incredible new way of beading, it's called "Peyote stiching" and it is so sweet and beautiful. Something I don't think I would have tried had she not started me. So as I said, the student has become the teacher.

This has been an incredible experience for me. One that has shown me the strength and generosity of the human spirit, in so many people, in so many places and in so many ways. I have done some healing of my own. I won't go into it, but thank you Bari and Sharen. If you read this blog, know that you have given me back my inner balance.

If all goes well , the next time I'll be with Carol it will be at home in Sarasota. And very soon too!
