A confession of sorts. Doing what you love is not work, even if you are tired at the end of the day.
Bird Droppings September 28, 2025 A confession of sorts. Doing what you love is not work, even if you are tired at the end of the day. “To love what you do and feel it matters, how could anything be more fun?” Katharine Graham I learn something daily as I wander the internet and read…

Bird Droppings September 27, 2025Trying to understand giving thanks, war, and Teaching I seldom have a difficult time sleeping.

Bird Droppings September 26, 2025 Should I be a wolf or a dog in education? Considering the current news and political turmoil, I recalled a trip to the Atlanta Zoo. An older man approached me as I walked up the hill at the Zoo. I had never met this man previously and hoped never to…

Bird Droppings September 24, 2025 Is synchronicity a focal point on the pathway during our life experiences?

Solitude is within one’s soul and heart.
Bird Droppings September 16, 2025 Solitude is within one’s soul and heart. On most mornings, I venture out to take photos of the sunrise animals I encounter and old buildings I find along the way.

Just an observation, or am I seeing something totally different than you
Bird Droppings September 14, 2025Just an observation, or am I seeing something totally different than you “I am that I am”. I read that somewhere many years ago, a simple definition of someone. As I look at its simplicity, are we not all who we are? I grew up in a middle-class family first in…
