Education is the process in which we discover that learning adds quality to our lives. Learning must be experienced.
choices our-lives
We almost always have choices, and the better the choice, the more we will be in control of our lives.
choices moments that-moment
Good or bad, everything we do is our best choice at that moment.
teacher heart thinking
This is at the heart of all good education, where the teacher asks students to think and engages them in encouraging dialogues, constantly checking for understanding and growth.

What happened in the past that was painful has a great deal to do with what we are today, but revisiting this painful past can contribute little or nothing to what we need to do now.

The ultimate use of power is to empower others.
sex marry-me ifs
Don't marry someone you would not be friends with if there was no sex between you.
attitude want behavior
If you want to change attitudes, start with a change in behavior. In other words, begin to act the part, as well as you can, of the person you would rather be, the person you most want to become. Gradually, the old, fearful person will fade away.
