Someone said, I wish I had your troubles, Rachel. She smiled again.
Guy told of his experiences in the past two years. For all he went through he wouldn't want to change anything. In hospital after hospital he met people shattered, sick, suffering in silence. He said all this put his accident in a different perspective. It took him out of himself. No, he wouldn't change a thing.
This is their last high school class, and mine. There are tears and expressions of wonder that Guy is sending us on our way with a story that reminds us to count our blessings.
The bell rings and they sprinkle me with confetti. I am told to have a good life. I wish them the same. I walk, color speckled, along the hallway.
Someone calls, Hey, Mr. McCourt, you should write a book.
