About Letters to My Teacher

Included in Letters to My Teacher is my story, Red Ink In A Journal. Red Ink details an interaction between myself and my Senior English teacher at the time of my mother's death. I had few tools to handle the grief, anger and other emotions going on inside me at the time. Read a wise woman's comments that linger with me even today.

Excerpts from The Courage to Forgive
The Twenty-Third Psalm for the Brokenhearted by Carmen Leal

The year Melanie turned eight, her mother was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. A year later, Melanie's father started sneaking into her bedroom at night.
********************************************************
Malachi 4:6 says, "He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children and the hearts of the children to their fathers." Thanks to the Sheperd, father and daughter found the courage to turn their hearts to each other.
