Sentimental Mood in the AM

 
The Toucher is in a sentimental mood this morning. Not a sad mood but a mood of prideful recollection...The accompanying picture solidified the moment. I was tying my favorite tie...attaching it to my Breast Cancer Month pink shirt...and positioning the tie inline with my cherished lapel pin (Peace Corps). I thought about one of my mentor's, Marc Goodman. He taught me how to tie a tie. Then I thought about big bruh, Richard Flippin. He made certain that I stood up straight! Memories of men stepping in when father WAS (no longer) occupied by a powerful force.  
 
We should pay Homage to those who help YOU pave the way!

Respect, Flip and Goodman!
