How It Feels

Today a student of mine gave me a sweatshirt with a huge "Purdue" emblazoned on it.

Many years ago, I gave gifts to my teachers in school because they were nothing short of marvellous.

A few years ago when I was still in Cal Berkeley, our Japanese class gave our sensei a huge thank-you card and she promptly burst into tears as she stepped out of the classroom for the last time.

Today I had a taste of the same sweet feeling.
