For thirty years, I was the teacher in a classroom. It was an experience I would never give up and I hope I made a difference for those students, but underneath the apple crusted desk, I was always a writer, an observer and a student of human behavior and responses. My imagination tends to fly in a million directions and it takes a cage to keep it focused.

What does it take to motivate someone to pack up and leave their home, their culture, their food, religion, community, family, and language? People do it all over the world looking to escape the intolerable or find hope when it is lost.
