last night after my women's in ed class, i reflected that i didn't really know how to reflect. i guess that is a start, right. i decided to be more reflective in my studies and in my life, i will have this blog to diary my thoughts and feelings about anything. my life is going by way too quickly. i was discussing when i ran my first marathon, and it was two years ago...when i was 26. i am almost 28 and i feel like my life is boring and in many ways too self absorbed. i have made one thing clear; i must do more for the environment. sean and i went to the Green Festival last weekend in d.c. it was exhilarating to see so many different people sharing their ideas and creativity about how to make this world a better place. waste, greed, selfishness, war, are all huge problems when you look at the spectrum of what is going on in the world. it seems ironic to be talking about being more reflective and less self-absorbed. can one achieve this? i will think about these things:
- my education (class reflection topic)
- union of man and woman in a spiritual sense, not sexual at all. i am referring to the yen/yang or the 6 pointed star. how does this relate to the educating the whole child? we talk about educating to all the different senses, but what about getting kids in touch with their femininity and masculinity? how does this help teach citizenship?
- what is citizenship? not just voting anymore, is it?
- 4:30 AM trip to the National Museum of Native Indians
OH, so much on my mind.
peace, friend.
