Concerning plagiarism and copying
Postbox letter from Ralph Sasser

I am my mother's keeper
Living my mother’s legacy in a world of good and evil.
I tried to look for a teaching position, but my heart just wasn't into it. I couldn't concentrate. I couldn't focus. I had lost my energy, my drive to succeed. I barely functioned at all.
