I must write my letter of intent to retire. It is before me to do. I struggle to do it because it is my public declaration to quit, to stop, to lay down what I have strived at for 32 years, and on a specific day…walk away. I am not deluded, I will still be busy and find plenty to do but the official teaching in the Academy of Higher Learning will be closed. I will most miss the silent halls of early morning, late nights, and long breaks. Those silent halls allowed me the time to know them as brimming with visionary possibilities, the place dreams were given the greatest chance to come true. When one walks in those places the power of possibilities is Divinely overwhelming. To walk away from that will be difficult.
