Today, November 15th, I had lunch with a former professor of mine, Dr. Judith Robertson. I am privileged to say that she has become a valued friend. Our writing styles are very different; our health journeys not so much. When I read her postings on Facebook, I’m in awe of her beautiful descriptions and her nods of recognition to other (note I said other…..) great writers. A fabulous writer, she is both a wordsmith and language artist. Judith is humble enough to reference timeless authors – Virginia Woolf for example – whose works inspire her own words. Her own words leave me thinking. It’s so easy to get caught up in the ordinary, Judith helps me to reach for more. Thank you Judith.
