					<description><![CDATA[<p>So beautiful &#8211; thank you for sending Tina! I particularly appreciated this bit: &#8220;We subsist now on a meager vocabulary of winners and “losers,” of “sad!” naysayers and “nut job” adversaries. We’re asked to see an absence of eloquence as the presence of authenticity. But that’s bunk. Words, like monuments, matter.&#8221; Love, Liz With Memorial &#8230;</p>

<p>With Memorial Day around the corner a friend from Juilliard and world class musician sent email with the enclosed article.  It brought tears to my eyes.</p>
<p>Sincerest thank you for all that you do to make the world a better place.</p>
