Teaching a woman to fish.

I've heard a proverb that goes "if give a man a fish he eats for a day but if you teach a man to fish he eats for life". Today, I was able to begin teaching a woman how to sell on eBay. She wants to learn so she can supplement her family income without the cost or worry of child care. She did great! It's always a great feeling to teach someone a skill they will use. We'll be working some more in the next few weeks. I can't wait to see what she accomplishes with her new skills!

Then, it was off to a meeting, making phone calls and then another meeting. Some days, I don't know if I'm coming or going but it's very nearly always worth it.

See ya in the morning,

Gayle
