Thankful Thursday – Touched by the Sharing of Others

Education Life Training Center

In the spirit of expressing gratitude, my Thankful Thursdays will highlight someone or something worth sharing with you.

This past Thursday I was invited to attend the ‘Word Play Literacy Theatre’ benefit for the Education and Life Training Center.  The event featured community leaders sharing a piece of literature or story that inspired them and related to the ELTC’s mission of literacy, inspiration and education.

The highlight of the night for me was the sharing of Jane Sullivan’s story about her husband and a beautiful letter from a soldier to his wife in the Civil War.  The story left me breathless and teary but so deeply touched by the simple act of sharing something so personal and so real.

I’m a huge fan of enabling those around me and ELTC is an organization that does just that.  I could go on about them (and will – just ask!) but am so deeply thankful for a night of inspiration and for the ongoing work that they do in our community.

Thank you ELTC for A Wonderful Evening! 

 

Is there something that you are thankful for?  Please share!  Guest bloggers welcomed or just share it in the comments below.

Part of my love affair with Fort Collins has to do with the wonderful people who live here.  If there is someone who you just love (or if you share the love for someone I mention here), let me know!

As always, my door is always open.  Stop by and say hello or join me for a Mugs Coffee!
