This weeks Inspire Me Thursday Journal entry:
"Fifteen minutes of slightly edited rambling about what I feel connected to… ideas, the environment and people. Generally I think more about creating connections than about what I am connected to myself. My day revolves around creating connections with the children I work with, with parents, with my co-workers. It’s part of care giving and teaching and raising children. I think that when connections are created, an understanding is created. I’m thinking of pen pals and exchange students and “sister cities.” I’m thinking of the power of the “web.” I think the more we connect the stronger we become. Connections create community. Hopefully communities of people that care about peace, understanding, and respect. I believe the more we are connected to the environment, the more we will care about the impact we have. The more we will try to live lightly on the earth. The more connected we are, the more we will realize we are a part of the planet Earth, not separate from it."
