Writing from the Heart: Thank your mentors »

Wed, 28 May 2025 14:05:12 -0400 | via Martha's Vineyard Times

The other night, my friend Rick and I were talking about how many teachers had influenced our lives. He had five. I had four. My first great one was my mother. She had learned English at age 11, fresh off the boat from Germany. Education in Hartford, Conn., in 1930 must have been exemplary, and since my mother was a voracious student and had to be the mouth for her Yiddish-speaking parents, her language skills became impeccable. My first words, instead of “Dada” or “Mama,” were probably “If…

Longer days in May are a welcome reminder that summer is almost here. For as long as I can remember, I’ve lived for my family’s annual summer trip to the beaches of Cape Cod. And in June I’m headed back to the Cape for the first time since 2022 with my now larger, blended family.

Many people on the Vineyard may be astonished by the sheer number and fast pace of executive orders issued from the White House over the first 100 days of the Trump administration. But it’s possible to judge three key domestic issues to determine their impact on Islanders and all Americans: immigration, government cuts, and the economy. First, a comment on the meaning of “100 days.” The term’s origin dates to 1815, from Napoleon’s return from exile to his defeat at Waterloo and then to…
