How is it that we make Great Friends?

Isn’t it weird that as we travel through life, we run into people who just seem to make an impact, even from a short interaction. Despite long distance and time between interactions, when you meet, it is as if you have been together all along. I am most fortunate to have a few of those. The MtA Gang is one group. It seems like the crew from Preston Middle School may also be entering that circle. But this blog entry is about Jonathan and Valentina and Angelo.

It just so happens that Jonathan and Valentina and their son Angelo were also attending the ECOO conference. Despite all the work that they had to do professionally, and the family responsibilities, they took time to have supper and even drive me to Hamilton, an hour each way. Thank you very much. I appreciate your friendship and think of you often. You have a beautiful family, inside and out. Maybe we will see you this summer.

On the professional side of things, I was there to speak about my experience with Microsoft Partners in Learning in Cape Town.
