Today is August 4th, 2006. Next Monday I start back at school full time. We'll have a week of meetings and classroom set up before the kids come on the 14th.
Summer satiated my appetite for many things. My soul was well fed by painting in my classroom. Moon, sun, trees, grass, snowflakes... all these and more adorn the walls. I finally have the classroom I've dreamed of. Ok, in my dreams it was larger certainly, but the creative beauty is there. I walk in and I feel relaxed.
I went camping this summer with my friends. What a great time. I dodged dating a control-freak guy from Kenya, and a Korean guy who needed to smile more. I learned a new level of friendship with the Hippy. I visited my parents, my brother Glenn, my high school friend Ryan, and the Dallas Crew. I traveled a lot and was more than ready to come home by the time it was over.
Most of all, I learned about me. I learned to enjoy what I have, be content and happy in who I am. To connect with my intuition and spirit in a way I'd been neglecting. I shall look back on these months as the summer I became whole again.
