A nice quote indeed. I had never noticed that before, even though I have read ‘Little Women’. Mind you, that was almost 60 years ago!
Best wishes, Pete.

Kim, I love this. We all need exposure to challenge, even children. I am thinking of that scene from “Ray” about the blind Ray Charles, where his mother watches him fall and rather than rushing to help him, watches him get back up and recognize where he is. It is one the more powerful moments in a movie. Keith

Ok, so I suppose that I am going to have to break down and read Little Women, unless you’d recommend a different book of hers to start with?
