I should have written yesterday when all this was fresh in my head, but I have to share a this big, dazzling, sparkling, glittering joy that I have in my heart! First of all, I am completely overjoyed to see that the Christian Science Monitor, free-lance reporter, Jill Caroll is alive and free! I woke up this morning and turned on the news and honestly, tears of joy filled my eyes. What a strong, amazing woman to have survived this whole ordeal. I am so curious and interested to see how she will handle her release, and I wish her nothing but an easy transition back to her pedestrian life. I am quite sure that we will learn much from her throughout her life.

Another thing to share, on a much smaller scale... I had an Amelie moment yesterday. A blind woman was walking through the Student Union and needed to find the elevator. She stopped and asked a group of people walking by where they were. I overheard her question and approached her to see if she wanted help. She asked me to walk her to the elevator and that she would just follow me. I tried to stay out of the way of her cane, and I described everything we passed along the way- I don't think I spun her around too much, but it was a simple and very easy way to help her. Made my heart hummm.
