I wouldn't be surprised if they still remember those songs. Music, we are told, remains when many other memories fall away. I do hope you and I keep our memories of each other forever and add to them as the future unrolls. xxxoooP. J.

Your comments, Pamela, about the women writers are revealing in that their books came from their experiences. That is their strength. Their identities help us to understand the universals in the world. That’s my hope when I choose books to read. What I did as an English teacher to immigrants and abroad to language learners, one hopes, made a difference in people’s lives. The teenagers I taught singing to, in four languages, maybe widened their view of music. Very humbly, I hope that my tiny steps, my particulars, gave resonance to others that I taught. Thanks for new names of women writers that I’ll look into!Jeanie Furlanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16294566547596358943noreply@blogger.com
