A place of intellectual uncertainty is a good thing. It means learning is taking place. I am in that place. It’s like jumping from a window and not knowing exactly where the ground is, you just know it is there. I’m trying to mediate between thought, word, and deed. Disequilibrium is exciting. Not good or bad, but exciting. Cheers for reading.

0056: Silence

#violence #life #reality #teaching #education #prayer

A student of mine watched as her brother was shot in front of her early this morning. Please lend her your thoughts or prayers. So often we hear, “you just never know what goes on in these students’ lives”. More often, we do know what’s going on. We teach lovely people. We suffer together.
