The guy is a safe-zone incarnate. His students see the genuineness of it, they feel it and they respond to it. Talk about making a positive impact ...

Wow..touching...makes you realize how fortunate we are and how we can often overlook and take for granted good health.

I have the greatest admiration for Mr Wright, as a teacher, a parent, and as a really good man!

We need more teachers like him but if it wasn't for his son, would he be the same way?
God bless him! |

The world is a better place because of people like this man. We should all be thankful that his path led him to education. What an extraordinary teacher and remarkable human being.
I am humbled...and there is definitely something in my eye. angela

That's a better man than I could ever hope to be but because of him, maybe I'll try a little harder.

That's a very moving piece. Life can be so bitter sweet, too often lacking any rhyme or reason. I think I will try to be a better man...certainly not his caliber, but I have a lot of room for improvement.

Well put - life is indeed so very precious. I wish I could always remember that when I'm feeling sorry for myself!
