Teach the World with Love

Bringing my teaching to the world and the world to my teaching. As I journey across the world to teach, I am reminded of a very catchy tune "We meet the world with love, Reaching out, friendly hands, We meet the world with love." The song's chorus is the heart of my teaching philosophy.

Yesterday, our George Cox family celebrated the amazing life of Dr. Scott Steckler. This man made school fun and helped teach sarcasm to the kids with his silly sayings. At school, we had an amazing gathering of people from across Scott's lifetime. Thanks for being a wonderful principal, mentor and leader. #DrSteckler (at George Cox Elementary School)

I have always used Enya within my own writing and creative processes. This album has her trademark "enyaisms," and this album brings you through an emotional journey which transcends this world. We start with the journey, "And on the road are you and me" (The Humming). We experience some separation "Let me give this dream to you each night and ever more...and all those years you guided me so I could find my way." (So I Could Find My Way). Even a little break up, "Wonder why this love is over (Even In The Shadows). And just like life, we rebound. "Everything flows. Here comes another new day." (Echoes In Rain). The journey continues and just like a book/movie, I leave you to your journey. Enya always has a way to create soothing sounds to counter the harsh world we live in. Take this lyrical and musical journey with your emotions. At the end of this journey on the Deluxe Version, Enya leaves us with bonus tracks that remind us that "I always remember your smile. Each one has a journey, that's how it goes. Some times we're together, some times alone." #enya #DarkSkyIsland #deluxe

My saying for the week: "Living for the weekend. So let's just get out there and make our living. You gotta go to school, gotta go to work, gotta get it done with." #LivingForTheWeekend
