My entries have changed since I first started to blog....in
the beginning they were a little more thought provoking...had a little more
substance......however, that has since changed...
Mainly because since the academy has been up and running, I
don't have as much down time to reflect on the day....to gather my thoughts
that are constantly circulating around the topic of Carpe Diem Academy....
In the beginning, I was blogging late morning or mid-afternoon.....now I am lucky to post a
daily entry before 11:59 PM....
I don't need to blog everyday....however, it's more of a
personal challenge to do so....each day I have learned something.....each day
something new happened....this is the next stepping stone in my life and I want
to remember all that I gained from this experience!
So...today I am off....have a little more time to
reflect....here it goes....
Yesterday evening, I was sitting in my office getting ready
for class and as I was grading mid-terms, something (I really can't identify
exactly what it was) reminded me how much I love my job.....
Personal happiness is something that we all strive for....I
am happy now....I have been happy since I was notified that the proposal for
the 21st Century Community Learners grant was accepted....
But why am I happy? I
am happy because I made a positive change in my career. I am happy because I
work for and with dedicated educators. I am happy because at 5:30 children are
still smiling even though they are still in school....
Children....smiling....school...5:30....those 4 words you
don't often find in the same sentence! The other day someone asked me about how
I always blog about how we are going to change the world .........those 4 words
in the same sentence proves that we are! Children want to be at school.....they
want to learn....they are happy!
Happy Easter!
Carpe Diem!
