Teaching and Learning

For your consideration…

Teaching and Learning…learning and teaching. It is like the which came first the chicken or the egg question. I am very familiar with this card and immediately looked for a picture of it for today’s message.

All of us, whether we realize it or not are students and teachers. Today’s message wants us to think about that. We may think of ourselves as one or the other rather than both. But we are both. Realizing this can make us better students and better teachers.

After all who wants a bad teacher or bad student for that matter? These roles are important whether we think of ourselves in them or not. So today we are asked to be conscious of them and strive to do them to the best of our ability. Take responsibility of them. Be a good and conscious student and a dedicated teacher. It is another way we can change the world for the better.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…

-Affirm…“I am loved.”

-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”

-Drink lots of water.

-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.

-Learn and teach…teach and learn.

What made me smile yesterday…

-Sigrid and I made a trip to the other side of the state to pick up some of her things.

-Dinner at Cornwell’s in Turkeyville.

-Great pictures of Shannon, Will, and Conner on the boat.
