As this is the week before what is recognized as the birth of Christ, I'd like to wish everyone reading this column/post a very merry Christmas, and I hope everyone "has everything that, you ever dreamed of" as Dolly Parton lamented in I Will Always Love You - and may you always love life.
For Christ's Birthday, I hope teachers get that $10,000 pay raise; I hope all retired teachers get that cost-of-living increase; I hope all state agencies increase services to our most vulnerable loved ones; I hope my friends haven't been offended by my passion to defend public education, and for those that have been, consider this heartfelt apology; and I hope those who don't know me, whom I've offended, also consider my apology - I'm sorry; To those who've disagreed with my passion towards, in my opinion, the right thing to do - "I'm sorry"; and friends of my past who no longer consider me a friend - may your heartaches be forgotten...
