Teaching fills up available time so this blog sits abandoned while the school blog and Schoology fill with details of education. Someone, I suppose with some effort I could find out who, said once, “Work fills up available time.” Then there is the expectation of reflection on process, product, and result should one have a moment to look out across the field into the copse.
Lao-tzu wrote, “Work is done and then forgotten.” In such a world, work suits life, keeps it going, ensures that what is needed, gets done. Our world makes all of us strivers. It is exciting and wonderful in a way that makes all of creators. And yet living for what may be rather than now tosses away the past and erodes the present. What will our children and grandchildren look back to, past hopes for the future?
