Greetings,
My name is Janette Patterson Schafer. For lack of a better word, my blog “mission statement” is to update interested parties on upcoming events of interest, to give my loyal readers a chance to view and comment on my latest writings, and to share my thoughts, musings, and opinions with those who would take the time to look. I hope you find these snippets of my life and work interesting, newsy, emotionally satisfying, thought-provoking, and fun.
Now, to end my first posting, and set the tone for what this site should be about, I’d like to include a few lines from a favorite song, “No One Is Alone,” from the musical “Into the Woods” by Stephen Sondheim:
“Sometimes people leave you.
Halfway through the wood.
Others may deceive you.
You decide whats good.
You decide alone.
But no one is alone.”
I look forward to our journey together.
Very truly yours,
Janette Patterson Schafer
