Instead,I got out my dictionary and persevered.But I must tell you in all honesty, that I thought you were the author!Before I left the club house last eve,I took a quick look at your blogg,remembering you<br />mentioned a new one for sunday, and since I'm always eager to see what you're writing about, I quickly read the first paragraph,"Your" paragraph, and saved the rest for today(delayed gratification)!It took me reading it over several times,that I realized that you were not the author.What gave it away?Well aside from Gail Collins name appearing throughout and her name at the very begining,it was the telling of the story in Atlanta and the mention of an AUDIENCE, that finally did it!!!Because for the life of me, I couldn't remember you being in <br />Atlanta sharing this (or any other)story, to an AUDIENCE!!!Honest to God, there are times I doubt my own sanity!But moving on from there,that was an inspiring story.She wrote it well(which is why I thought it was you),and it resonated.She gave it a soul.The line that read<br />"I never imagined telling Susan B Anthony, how well amer. women are doing in the 21 century,because her faith in her country and her<br />cause, was so strong,that she wouldn't be surprised"was so profound,I just loved it. Along w/ the mention of Rep Fredrick Hicks,who left the bedside of his beloved, dying,wife(at her insistence),to cast what would be 'the final crucial vote'.And Harry Burn..w/ the letter from<br />his mother!!!And the woman who put a yellow rose on his grave...This is very moving.You will not find this in the history books in school.How do I know?Because I would have remembered 'THIS'.And finally,the picture and quote from Susan B Anthony herself "Failure is Impossible".Words to live by! Thank you for bring this all to light. teeteenoreply@blogger.com
