Thank you to my TA in Chemistry freshman year, 40 days and 40 nights journal Lauren and my mom. The TA, a Cornell senior already admitted
to med school put his feet up and read the NYT during chemistry lab. Finally (age 46, Barack safely in whitehouse) I let myself read it thoroughly least twice a week- no rushing.
40 days 40 nights gove me the courage to start journaling. It’s NOT like anyone will ever read it- but I couldn’t get started without a little format.
LAUREN is making daily progress on her book (I gobbled up a sneak preview and loved it!) and she ENCOURAGES me in her gentle quiet way to plant myself and do the same.
Whether I ever have a completed book or not, I love time spent working on it. My mom told me that she and Rafi had some goals they never seriously pursued and I should not be afraid to pursue mine.
Now, I just need one more benefit from this writing project…get Iris to write!
