Sometimes you would cry

Dear Yolanda,

Fifty years ago, you and I went to Roosevelt Elementary school. You were a bit older than me and in the special ed class due to your blindness. I have thought of you often over the years, and felt very mad at myself for teasing you and poking at you. Sometimes you would cry. I am so ashamed of myself for treating you that way. It was so unkind and down right mean. I am so sorry and wish I could ask you forgiveness. I wish I could tell you how very sorry I am. Perhaps somehow you will know.

Annie , age 61
