Reflections on the Art of Living

Life is without meaning.
You bring the meaning to it.

The meaning of life is
whatever you ascribe it to be.

Being alive is the meaning.

Proud Aunt

Remember Phillip? He's my talented nephew who was selected by his high school art teacher to participate in a weekend retreat for aspiring young artists. Phillip joined 72 other art students from across the state to attend the gathering at Haystack Mountain School of Crafts Institute. "The weekend was about finding and cultivating the creative spirit, the drive that often carries artists throughout their lives." For Phillip, it was a chance for exposure- to new, creative opportunities and to more people like himself.

Slowing Down

The school year is coming to a close, and the After School Program has already wrapped up its final week of activities. This year will be my last as Beech Hill's site leader. Hopefully, I can use the time to grow as a teacher... perhaps take a few classes? Who knows? All I can say is that the extra time will be spent restoring myself and doing less...
