The moments that change us
In third grade during cursive lessons I customized my signature, making it illegible.
Mrs. Rice thought it was great.
“Don’t worry about the rules too much. It’s your signature. Do what you want.”
Explicit permission to break rules. From a teacher.
I still remember that five-second interaction. I thought her attitude was so cool.
People leave positive and indelible marks in our lives. Often, without knowing it.
If you can find them, thank them.
The gift is just as powerful on the rebound.
