With communication so inclusive and immediate today, that's easily understood.<br /><br />I very much enjoyed this prompt, and it set me thinking about who my heroes were when I was a child and who they are now. Quite clearly, my hero-needs have changed.<br /><br />Thank you, Adele.Amita Jayaramannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6272430209314356497.post-9199485379251430422014-11-17T07:49:27.082-05:002014-11-17T07:49:27.082-05:00Thanks for your comment, John, and for the link! &...Thanks for your comment, John, and for the link!
