"Forever Young" by Diana Ross
*Years and Years and Years ago I first heard this song.
*As I have watched my own two children grow into young adults, the song has become more and more important to me.
*When my daughter Kate graduated from high school last year, I typed up the lyrics to the song, had them framed, and gave them to her as a gift.
*While on my cruise last week I was walking the deck listening to my iPod.
*This song came on and it was a moment of "perfection".
*To me there is so much you could do with the words and the young people we teach.
*May you all stay "Forever Young"!!!
