I Like Fridays.

I like Fridays. Yes, it helps that Friday is my official day off each week. But even more than an ocassional day off, Friday just refreshes me. It seems to be that one day of the week when my strength is almost always renewed. 

My 8th grade teacher, Mr. Ben Selvitelle,  was surely one of the greatest school teachers in the world. On the coast of North Carolina, we lovingly called him "Mr. S." He was a "retired" Marine from Boston and gave me a love for English, writing, and sports. He also helped me to begin to believe in myself and just gave me an overall appreciation for life itself.

And yes, Mr. S. gave me a love for Fridays. Every Friday he wrote "TGIF" on the chalkboard. "Thank God, It's Friday".

Grateful
