Freedom Writers

Hi Ali - I've been reading your blog for quite a few months now - found my way here from a friend's blog, Stephanie from MAMBI - and I am always so inspired, mentally and creatively! When I saw this particular blog I just had to comment...I went to college with Erin, the remarkable gal who inspired the movie Freedom Writers. Way back when she had a passion and enthusiasm that was rarely matched - when I saw the trailer for the movie I knew instantly that it was her, and I wasn't surprised. There are alot of "feel good" inspiration movies out there, many dealing with teachers/students, and of course some take some creative license...but to all of your readers who saw the movie, it just doesn't begin to do her justice - she truly was THAT inspiring! Thanks for sharing your passion and inspriation with us everyday...from your site I have found my way to many other blogs...to which I am now addicted :)
