Today's sponsor is the letter "F"

Have we entered fall yet?

Classes have begun, students and teachers arrive, collaborate, achieve...

Lunar cycles pass, becoming more orange and striking as I can ever remember. The air is quite heavy, although it seems a natural step towards what Autumn brings...

Autumn in German is "herbst". Since last blogging, many moons ago, I have architected an interest of sorts. One might call this a yearning or longing to identify with my family's history...culture, etc.

Language is quite a magnificent phenomena. I emphasize its plurality because it is my belief that as we use these words, place them together, form ideas... we commit not only intention to change and understanding; but rather inevitably, that intention acts as an investment towards our own education and learning...

Within intentional action, we become more informed and aware of our own (& others) purpose. I follow reason and intuition in each day, believing that through their interplay great things can, will, and do occur.

This fall semester, it is my personal intention to create a calm, creative, and collaborative environment in which the learn<-->teach continuum continues to evolve and goals continue to be attained.
