Reflection/Evaluation
There was so much that she said that I thought was right on and that touched my soul. I thought how lucky we are to have, finally, a responsible, considerate, caring person running this department. After her presentation, I got in line to shake her hand and tell her how much I appreciated everything she said. She is a wise woman. Before we parted, we agreed that Mother Earth was the most important thing to both of us.
