Gretchen Bernabei and Maureen Ucles |
In addition to being such a great resource, I have found Gretchen to be quite approachable. Down to earth is the best way to describe her. She is a teacher at heart. She is a real live teacher who wants to share her experiences with others. She knows that we are all in this together and we may as well help each other out. I have shared my work with her and the different ways that I have used her work. She listens and responds authentically. That is one of the many qualities that I admire.
Today people were amazed at her generosity. She shared many her ideas encapsulated in a zip drive. We downloaded lots of resources. That may have surprised many people here. It is, not in the least, surprising to me, as this is standard practice for Gretchen. Ever since I have gone to her sessions, she has done this. I love this and I try to do the same with the people that I encounter. She is a great example.
Today started out completely stormy and wet. I trudged through some serious Houston rainy day traffic. I left my house an ungodly hour just to arrive on time. I wanted to be prepared to receive all the many blessings that Gretchen would bestow upon our group. Today, as I shut down my computer and got ready for my trek home, I feel fortunate to have spent the day with Gretchen and my friends. I feel refreshed, renewed and rejuvenated(pitchfork!). We learned together, laughed together and shared the gift that I love(pitchfork!). We shared the many gifts that writing and conversation will inspire. Great day, great moments, totally episodic (pitchfork!)!
So sorry I missed! You'll have to share!
