Teachers

  Throughout life, each one of us has encountered a person or two that have become sources of inspiration or better - a guiding light on this powerful journey called life. Whether as helpful guides or pillars of strength, these brief encounters have sometimes become touchstones of important times on our path toward becoming. 

  Simple words hardly acknowledge the impact that these people have had in our lives and the extraordinary benefits that has come from their contributions.

   In honor of my "teachers", I wish to list their names so as to acknowledge my gratitude and profound admiration for assistance and inspiration.

   In the end, if I have made any kind of significant contribution to this world and its progress, then it is with these individuals that I wish to share my success and at the same time, acknowledge my indebtedness for their involvement in my life.
