Education?

Let's just say, I'm learning quickly there's a time for......

It's a never ending poiltical game, and its not about kids. It's about scores. The facade is about kids, but at the end of the year its the numbers. The mindset doesn't change. That saddens me. I chose this, because I have something to give, and a number is not what I'm after.

Have you ever read the Little Prince? Third Graders are pilots, and well the rest is History. You want kids to achieve and become great things, lets remind them that choosing the right answer is the only way to achieve this.

For that, I am saddened. I want kids to grow, experience and become someone different. Some, don't care. Where can i go to find this?

Hero

I heard this song on the radio today. I love music. For all who do not know this widely known fact, I love words. I love it when I find "just-the-right" words when I'm writing. This song created a peaceful moment. I'm not entirely sure how, but I was content with how the words left me. For now, I'm short with my own words, but needed to leave this mark.


Jo Dee Messina
IF Heaven was Needing A Hero
I came by today to see you I just had to let you know If I knew the last time that I held you was the last time I'd have held you, and never let go Oh, it's kept me awake nights, wondering I lie in the dark, just asking why I've always been told You won't be called home Until it's your time I guess heaven was needing a hero Somebody just like you Brave enough to stand up For what you believe And follow it through When I try to make it make sense in my mind The only conclusion I come to Is heaven was needing a hero Like you I remember the last time I saw you Oh, you held your head up proud I laughed inside When I saw how you were standing out in the crowd Your such a part of who I am Now that part will just be void No matter how much I need you now Heaven needed you more Cause heaven was needing a hero Somebody just like you Brave enough to stand up For what you believe And follow it through When I try to make it make sense in my mind The only conclusion I come to Is heaven was needing a hero Like you Is Heaven was needing a hero and that's you
