Good-bye Oprah

Okay I admit it!  I am an Oprah follower.  I have often said if I could have anybody over for dinner at my house there are three people I would absolutely have over and just listen to them talk.  One of them is Oprah (Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts are the other two).

Okay so she has more money than she could spend in ten lifetimes, but it's so awesome to see how many people she has touched through her giving.  The farewell shows (Monday and Tuesday) in Chicago was amazing but I was most touched by all of the people she has secured educations for and those she helped indirectly.  Just think, for every African-American man she has paid tuition for at Moorehouse College in Atlanta, GA, she is not only helping them but their children and their children.  What an amazing gift!

I personally will miss watching her show but . . . she is OPRAH, she'll go on to bigger and better things.  She is not done!
