Thank you Sherry, for writing a refreshingly honest and so much appreciated essay. You make so many important points and reveal so many truths. I would highlight, and list them all if I could. Instead, I am going to archive for a future read.

I remember reading a while back that the most generous gift you can give someone. Is your time and attention to listen and let them know they are understood. I feel you have done that many times over from your words, thank you.

I love how you clarify ultimately it is about doing what is right while at the same time explaining we are all human. For that reason, the reality is there is no room for complacency — we can all, always do better — but some of us have more work to do!
