Out of Town

Just got back from being out of town for a couple of days.  I had to go to Richmond to a 2 day class.  I must admit I am not the best student, and some of the presenters were not the best teachers.  Its not that the information may not be worth hearing its the presentation in which it is given.  Being a gifted teacher for others is definitely a gift that not many possess. People who do not teach all the time often forget how to be effective.  People are not generally interested in hearing how wonderful you are unless you are willing to teach them the secret of how to be wonderful too. Good teachers and mentors are always willing to teach the secrets, it gives them great satisfaction to help others grow and become better. To all the teachers and mentors that further the people that further the world, thank-you! Where would any of us be without those that sacrifice their own glory in the pursuit of the betterment of others?  And just for clarification I am not referring to Democrats, we can certainly improve peoples life's with the sharing of knowledge and that doesn't increase the deficit one penny.
