Alan spent nearly his entire adult life either serving or as a civilian for various branches of the U.S. Military - 51 years.

We had a great conversation about a number of things but my favorite part was passionate he was about basketball and what ensued was completely unexpected and you could tell by my reaction that I was in complete shock.

Alan was there with his wife of 12 years who he met overseas and his dog.

Mac joined me today with her golden retriever and we are not naming the dogs name to protect the innocent (LOLLLLSSSS). The truth is, I either forgot the dogs name or I forgot to ask.

Either way, the pup loves chasing his ball (I do know it was a boy) into the ocean and Mac is an English teacher.

Thank you both for your candor and for your perspective on how to connect with the kids and for being such an amazing teacher.

And stay tuned for the end where she reveals what her favorite tattoo is, why she got it and what it means.

Remember everyone, you are not alone and the world is a better place with you in it. If you're having a hard day, you can always dial 988 and someone will be there 24/7/365.
