This person has been at St. Mike's supporting our school for 27 years. They're credited for sharing this story: "About 20 years ago, I heard a talk to teens from a priest—Father John. He talked about “being and acting differently.” At that point in his talk, I thought he would challenge the teens about their actions and attitudes. Instead, what he said was this: “When people ask you, ‘How are you?’ Don’t simply say, ‘Oh, fine, you know.’ Rather, say, ‘I am blessed.’” That was it. “I am blessed.” You see, ever since then, I have consciously tried to respond to that simple, everyday question, “How are you,” with the response, “I am blessed.” Why? Because I am."
