		<description><![CDATA[Let&#8217;s do a bit of an experiment today, shall we?
Say we have two well educated, intelligent people, both of who did very well in school, but each had one subject that they struggled with and just plain didn&#8217;t get.  Now, imagine them each saying the following things:
Person A:  I really can&#8217;t read much. [...]]]></description>

June 26th used to seem like a lifetime away, but now it&#8217;s right around the corner.
I always seem to be going somewhere new, somewhere different.
Trenton, Brookfield, Wolfville, Dumfries, North Bay, Oakville, have all been my home, but now there&#8217;s here.
The first place in my &#8220;adult life&#8221; that I&#8217;ve [...]]]></description>

See, working at a private school, there are definite religious overtones, as the Chapel is a big part of the school schedule and community.  While I was initially skeptical of this, the chapel services are multi-faithed, so they include reasons from [...]]]></description>
