Questions arriving
Between shadows of light
Escaping darkness
Answers soon begin flight
Reflective life pause
Mind’s daily traffic slows
Seeking fresh outlook
Instincts shall always know
Sunrise opens mind
Passion finds virgin route
Learning through new ways
Destiny set to sprout
Moment of failure
Part of life’s faithful quest
Dusting off oneself
Set to taste tomorrow’s best
Life’s transforming guide
Opportunity talks
Jumping right onboard
Confidence leaves dry dock

As educators, we have each experienced the opportunities that our students hunger for.

Jim, thank you for reading and sharing a thought. I hope that winter isn’t too overwhelming in your neighborhood. Central Ohio is experiencing “real” winter for the first time this month. I need to check out your blog.
