Jean Houston and Mr. Tayer
Thank you to Maryanne Tuite for recommending that I read the following story. This is the way Maryanne presented it to me:
…many years ago, in the 80’s I attended the East Coast conference for Religious Education and the keynote presenter was Jean Houston. She told this wonderful story. If you google her name and find one story called: Mr. Tayer you will love it! Jean was/is a powerful speaker and I always remember that story. You will too.
Jean Houston (born May 10, 1937) is an American author involved in the human potential movement.[1]
