Here’s to Teaching and Learning

"If it is possible for a multibillion-dollar education program to train people to see themselves as limited being, it should also be possible for that program to encourage people to see themselves as embodiments of the capacity to transcend their present concepts of themselves and their powers."

~ Sidney T. Jourard

Audioslave ... mmmmm

It's true, isn't it?
There isn't any other way but this ...
just to be yourself.



BE YOURSELF
audioslave

Someone falls to pieces
Sleepin all alone
Someone kills the pain
Spinning in the silence
To finally drift away
Someone gets excited
In a chapel yard
Catches a bouquet
Another lays a dozen
White roses on a grave

To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do

Someone finds salvation in everyone
And another only pain
Someone tries to hide himself
Down inside himself he prays
Someone swears his true love
Untill the end of time
Another runs away
Separate or united?
Healthy or insane?

To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do

And even when you've paid enough, been pulled apart or been held up
With every single memory of the good or bad faces of luck
don't lose any sleep tonight
I'm sure everything will end up alright

You may win or lose

But to be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do

Socrates Thought

I know the music is too loud, but bear with it. It's worth it.

Blahblahblah

There are so many things about going on my own adventure that I am afraid of.

Fear.
So primal and simple is such a thing, but so bone-crushingly powerful.

Here.
Here is to battling fear.
