“There is something in personal love, caresses, and the magnetic flood of sympathy and friendship, that does, in its way, more good than all the medicine in the world.”
— Walt Whitman (May 31, 1819–March 26, 1892) from Brainpickings

I just tried having fun with this tonight & did a quick portrait of myself.  It is grungy looking & I kind of like it as grunginess represents me well. On another note, the Spring temperatures have finally arrived & apart from hundreds of Pine Siskins, Yellow Warblers, Chickadees at my feeders, life is good. My semester is terminating in 3-1/2 weeks & I have been in a frenzy of correcting, reading, giving off marks, which always leaves me depleated & empty but finally I can see the end of the tunnel. I have never met a teacher that enjoys correcting…
