She was! We've been trying to find her again to say "Thank you!"
For both the honesty and the optimism - without the acknowledgment of her pain, she would have felt alone in the world. Without the promise that the first twenty years would eventually end and life would improved, she might have done the unthinkable. (Catholic, or not.)
I don't understand people who don't love teaching... but then, I *loved* learning. It was something to lose myself inside, and avoid the rest of the world. (Along with reading.)
