Ocassionally, someone will ask me why I would ever want to be FB friends with former students. Its a good question. Heres my answer: As a man who struggles daily with life and its meaning (or sometimes even just getting up in the morning)- you cant even know the depth of encouragement I get from watching these brave young hearts jumping headlong into life with energy, idealism, wisdom, and fear. They each inspire me in many different ways- but they definitely inspire me. And that is good for my weary soul. I hope (I tried at least) that I inspired some kind of love for history in you. But know that you give me so much more.
