It is hard to let go. I have my sacred cows. This short proverb is a gentle reminder that the only that is real is the present moment. I need to let go of my historical narrative designed to fit my view of the past and my fantastic future.
I have been an educator for almost 20 years. Prior to that, I worked in private industry for 15 years, then returned to university to earn my education degree. For the past 11 years, I have been a co-creator of learning in a unique, progressive, alternative educational school of choice. Currently, I am engaged in a doctoral program at Gonzaga University in Spokane. A main theme in my learning there has been the roles of systems thinking, complexity theory, and organizational theory, and how they apply to education generally and the learning environment I share with students, parents, and colleagues.
Yes,I like that,let go of my historicql narrative..
That wonderful reminder … it doesn’t seem to matter how often one learns the lesson,. it still comes round again to learn at another level!!!
It always does Valerie. For me, it is a matter of being awake and catching each iteration.
