“…over time I learned that I can choose how to respond to the past. I can be miserable, or I can be hopeful — I can be depressed, or I can be happy.  We always have that choice, that opportunity for control.  I’m here, this is now, I have learned to tell myself, over and over, until the panicky feeling begins to ease” – Edith Eger

NOTE:  I am going to take a few days off to recharge my batteries before NYU resumes classes again in a few weeks.  This seems like a good time.  See you in a few days — Monday August 22.
