Why this blog?

"... Have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves ... Do not search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. The point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer." - Letters to a Young Artist, R. M. Rilke

Rooted in the promise and challenge of growth ...

these are letters from a young teacher.

Where do your ideas come from?

Avery: Manuel, where do your ideas come from?
Manuel: From my imagination. In my brain. Like pictures in my mind.
Avery: Where do the pictures come from?
Manuel: From the TVs in my brain.
Avery: Where did the TVs come from?
Manuel: From the mechanical people in my mind. They build the TVs in my mind. And the airplanes.
Avery: What are the airplanes for?
Manuel: They fly out of my brain to get more ideas.
