From RS re “Lessons Learned” in the July 19 issue
“Happy to report that I’ve been doing my shoelaces right. What unnerved me about the video is that he holds his first loop in his right hand instead of his left, so maybe he’s left-handed?”
My Response: Good question. As a right-hander, it took me a few weeks to adjust my coordination to tie the new knot. It was worth the effort.
From PN:
“I just read Ralph Waldo Emerson’s definition of success: ‘To laugh often and much; to win the respect of the intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you lived here. This is to have succeeded.’
“As I read this, I thought that you check all of the boxes. I am certain Ralph would agree.”
