She would tell you you were not speaking correctly because of your Puerto Rican dialec. Walter and I would laugh at her, not understanding that were so many variations of the Spanish language. Don't feel sorry for those you did not help as a youth. Their problems were far greater than we knew or than we could handle at that time in our lifes. Look ahead, care for those close to you. Lend an ear, a kind word, and some subtle advise it does go a long way. You do effect those that you touch. But we can not change the world other than one person at a time.<br />You are a good man! I hope you find some good in Winsted when you get back. If so take some pics because the goodness in town is fleeting. Frankly it has become a very depressing place.Jeff Colthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03182845368616995400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7887864881003570383.post-39142372394338520072010-10-07T11:15:47.887-05:002010-10-07T11:15:47.887-05:00Beautiful, thanks Al.

Sometimes I tell my children about how hard it was to be different, to have a really long and, apparently unpronouncable, "Spic" name and parents with accents. I often wonder how we can better teach children to view differences in positive ways - i don't think as a society we've yet solved that problem.tanyahuertashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01060831208015892113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7887864881003570383.post-89381331476076477482010-10-07T08:35:51.142-05:002010-10-07T08:35:51.142-05:00Wonderfully told and presented Al.
