Here I Am

Am I here? Distracted by cold, by heat, by noise, by quiet, by glare, by darkness. Called to change, I obey direction. I must be different, and will never be the same. I am on the way. Here I am! Present with warmth, with chill, with silence, with still, with reflection, with light. […]

Q & A

The questions we ask make the answers we get. So, we must pay attention and listen first. Being ruled by the numbers, misses ourselves. Calculated assessment is meaningless Rain measured in volume and duration makes life an endless series of droughts and floods. Soaked by the rain and absorbing its wetness, be filled with […]

Let Go Let God

It’s hard to give over control, as if, I ever had control. It’s hard to say, “I’ve lost control”, assuming I was in control. I’ve noticed some just want answers, and there are really no answers. I’ve noticed some make up answers, despite questions without answers. I cannot create solutions grasping at straws […]

State of Emergency

There is a state of emergency – be careful and be alert. Indeed, there is no plan, no control of what will be. Being emergent, regardless of “supposed to” and “have to” allows me to be responsive and receptive in the moment. In harmony with what is left, I’m one with in between […]

Spiritual Evolution

The DNA of my soul makes me what I am and imprints what I do. The window of my soul reflects my species – my truth of the whole Truth. The birthright of my soul – an incarnation that endows my being. The advancement of my soul (does not mean “better”) does […]

Lazarus

I’ve been here for a while. There ain’t no way out, I don’t see a way out. There are always possibilities There’s no sign of life. It would seem I can’t get out, I don’t see a way in. Seize the moment, be the belief This must be the end. I’ll […]

Wren’s Song

It’s happening, Joanna’s water broke, we’re more than ready, but I’m still scared. Breathe into every moment, be the coach, we can do this. It’s been hours and still no baby, and Joanna is having a lot of pain. I breathe with her and work with her, be one with each contraction. […]

Bold Goal

I was summoned to the Office; a call had come from corporate. I knew no good can come of this. Cautiously I entered the room, and sat down hoping against hope, that I could walk on the water. Alas, the message was of doom; and, no one could throw me a rope. My own […]

Reaccreditation

“Compliance is not for compliance sake. Compliance is really for student’s sake.” To be a school, there must be students. To be a good school, they must be engaged. Engaged students need an engaged school. Regardless of results, students come first. What they see, and what they do, prepares them, not just for […]
