We discussed this after going to a memorial service of a school chum's Dad the other day. We didn't care for him but care for her. He used to make us feel apart. He was one of those very big disciplinarians. We used to be intimidated by him but now we tell him to * off. Maybe I mention him b/c he was a school principal. His children are highly educated but my school chum is kind of a bit broken in spirit. We know of some really nice school principals, so I hope not to offend anyone.
Isn't it wonderful to be able to tell someone to FO?
All you here make me feel a part of.
Thank you for being part of ours...
In this classroom we are painting and drawing, still, creating everything we don't have time for irl. Right now we are focusing on the cloud formations and the blue sky of summer. We are not ignoring anyone but when we paint we get really quiet.
This is how it should be, don't you think?
Being quiet isn't ignoring anyone, it's honoring our need to be mindful of the present and our need for privacy...
Thanks to Catherine and all of you for allowing us to be 'a part' of this classroom with no ceiling (well for us, someone else may need a ceiling, that is the beauty of this room).
My thanks to everyone also!
Yes, the architecture of this room is in the mind of the students/teachers.
If I don't want to feel hemmed in, aka trapped, then the walls and ceiling drift away.
If I need to feel wrapped in safety? The walls and ceiling morph into a cocoon protected by those who can...

Thank you, Hunny, for sharing your loving and encouraging words.

In Peace
