Barbara: Well, last night my
older daughter left home for … get this … Paris. Yup, after graduating with her
fashion degree last April and finishing the summer saving every penny from 6-7-days-a-week
work at her retail and design assistant jobs, she landed an internship
with a couturier in Paris. That’s the good news. The “bad”, of course, is that
now both my babies are out of the house. Today, I am at the CNE (or The Ex),
taking my niece for a day at the fair. Figured it would keep me busy and
preoccupied enough that I won’t notice the quiet…
So to while away the day, I’m
posting a very inspiring Tedx video featuring Cheryl Hunter (a motivational
speaker/writer) that Sean’a sent to us last week (thanks, as always, Sean’a!!).
I thought it was going to be funny—until Ms. Hunter begins to speak about a brutal
attack she experienced in her teens. However, she is no downer. Watch and
listen as she transforms the horror of that experience into the discovery of
the secret of the beauty that is in each one of us: our imperfections.
