Summary: Margaret states: "If asked what I would like to do with this life of mine, I would readily answer, 'to be able to lift another with words.' There have been many times in my life when I have been saved from utter despair by words (some spoken, most written), and I consider those who did the lifting to be my friends: Ralph Waldo Emerson, George MacDonald, Emanuel Swedenborg. Some of these voices are still alive and lifting: Sophy Burnham, Ann Lamotte, Claire Blatchford, my brother and sister. I know I would feel quite alone on this planet without these curious, open voices."
