New York inspires creation and recreation, such a city of infinite permission.  The city's energy becomes an embrace - cradled in the energy of the city contained in her bosom  there is room for you, room for your difference, room for the acceptance craved in the small town that could not contain you.

Imagine as a young child, you walked into a classroom and felt that there was room for your difference, room for how you wanted to learn, room for the fear and apprehension encountered in the unfamiliar.  At the end of the first day of school at three o'clock, you knew viscerally that anything was possible since your potential  expanded by your teacher's acceptance.  All children deserve that depth of acceptance in school.
