Good morning my humble DU family,

To be in the presence of greatness has always been humbling to me. Whether meeting my favorite baseball player, s phlebotomist who drew six vials of blood and I didn't feel a prick, or a teacher who made me care about social issues or a great nurse or doctor who's caring was plain for all to see, I've always felt awe in their midst.
I feel that way with you.
Have a fantastic day filled with opportunities to be in the presence of greatness today, and if course, to be great!
Love, John

Help me as I'm being cut from food stamps because of the "work requirements".
Literally no one answered the phone all day there yesterday.
Thank you so much for asking Scrivener7.
I hope your day was much more enjoyable.
