Winter dog tracks
A quiet day after three days of Christmas celebration is magical in its own way. I opened a new book to read. enjoyed a coffee. Accepted an invitation to go on a walk with my brother.
Student Time is Sacred Time
Stephen Covey and his 7 Habits resonated with me the first time I read it. They became part of my life and I continue to strive to meet them every week. First Things First was also very motivating. The analogy of rocks in a jar is very powerful. Yet, there are times I wish I could grab Mr. Covey by the ear, drag him into my school so that he can see where his theory of time management breaks down.

A student came in to see if he was still welcome to the school. Immediately I switch into skeptic mode. A small voice reminds me to be open and keep a sense of hope. I try to balance the two emotions and invite him into an office.
