Spring...Summer...Take the time to chat with someone.
Do you remember when home telephones usually rested on a gossip bench with a short unforgiving cord or hung on a kitchen wall with a long spiraling cord? You had great conversations either sitting on the bench in a slouch, legs outstretched and crossed at the ankles, or leaning against whatever wall the phone was on or stretching the cord to wherever you wanted to sit. It is that sense of “back in the day” of easy wonderful chatting that I engaged Dr. Wyman in a conversation.

A published poet, workshop leader and teacher, Ms. Wyman captures the richness of life’s myriad “all things considered” and imparts her wisdom unselfishly to others to broaden their sense of the world. Here is our chat. * * * bill berry, jr.: Dr. Sarah Wyman, I am glad that we will have a brief chat and I will do my best to keep it b
