Sophie, you’re inspiring words!— the way you take the stories that you have heard and read and metabolize them into your experience is so moving… And Sean, thank you for your vulnerable offering(This was a poem that my children had to learn in school, but it didn’t resonate until today so thank you)

Such beautiful reflections! Thank you, Sophie and Sean, and now I know where “band of brothers” comes from.

My god these are beautiful. Thank you both for sharing them.

Sophie I’m so moved by your writing. It’s beautiful.

Sean you can’t go wrong with Shakespeare. I was so against his work when I was in school probably because it intimidated me but since I got older I have read a lot of it. There is so much there for everyone. Thank you for this reminder.

Sophie, I'm so impressed with how you succinctly capture disability and culture. You could be a culture and society teacher with your brilliant insights and knowledge. And, Sean, I love your words and your painting captures the sentiment beautifully. I haven't read or seen Henry V, but love Shakespeare, so it was great getting to read it today. Thank you, both!
