There are moments in life where one may not realize the potential influence of the hand of God. Perhaps they are truly god-incidences for nothing is co-coincidental really. I once knew a man who was blessed to be in the presence of this saint long before I was a convert. He used to tell stories about Bishop Sheen (formerly the Bishop of Rochester, NY) and Archbishop Sheen would grace his high school (originally a prep school for the seminary). That building is now the headquarters for the Rochester Diocese. It is interesting how many saints (and I believe Archbishop Sheen is a saint) were prophetic in their time. Many of his teachings were stark warnings to what is happening today. Long after my conversion, I was fortunate to meet a priest who had been very close to Bshp Sheen--Msgr John Brady, who passed away several years ago--what a holy man. Coincidence that this post crossed my path? I happened to find Msgr Brady's Memorial Mass Card at Adoration just the other day ... coincidence or god-incidence? Sometimes, memories can be interesting threads that weave throughout your life connecting souls and touching hearts. Amazing grace.

And as providence would happen! As soon as I re-posted two great works by former students what's the chance that another former student would post their work!!! YAY! Stephanie was a student I had at Roberts and had that spark (and a very nice color palette theme going in her work!) She is a wonderful illustrator and designer as well as having writing chops! One more post for my digital fridge!!! And Stephanie, I still show some of your work as a great student example in some of my classes ... know that you have continued to "level" up and inspire my students in their design journey!

Well, I want to repost this from one of the Seniors who graduated this year--It's kind of like posting cherished artwork by your children and mementos on your fridge--so here's something I want to post on my fridge! Anyway, since my family is grown and busy living their own lives, these days my students have become my surrogate children (although they are young adults). I am proud of each one, no matter where they start their design journey. Some are naturals and some are late bloomers. And I have to say, I have kept artwork on my digital fridge from the very first class I taught more than 12 years ago. So my former students may not realize it, but each has touched my life and it is exciting to see where their design journey will take them. God has given everyone creative gifts, so when I hear someone say,"I don't have a creative bone in my body," that sadly, is a misnomer people unknowingly place upon their potential for this life. Each school year, I pray that each of my students will find their passion, lean in and say "yes" to pursuing it with their whole heart. Those are the students who make a difference and inspire their peers and make teaching fun!The best part is to see where their journey takes them after they graduate!
