What did you learn in high school?
That is the subject on CBC radio at this very moment. I'd like to think that as a teacher, the one thing I'd like for students to get from high school is a thirst for learning. Once I stop learning anything new, I get bored and depressed! I love to learn, and this passion is what makes life so interesting to me. I feel helpless to help students when I don't see this spark in their eye, when some seem to have no joy in them...I think joy comes from the present moment, and how can a moment be filled with joy when apathy is present? What do YOU think?

I think I learned humility. I realized that there is a whole world out there to discover and I can either avoid it all, or dig right in. The more you learn the more you realize you are lacking
ReplyDeleteI think joy comes from many things. it's an attitude, not an event, and maybe not always a feeling either. ( www.project-joy.blogspot.com)
ReplyDeletebiggest thing i learned in high school : no matter how frustrating life is in North America, your life still rocks in the grand scheme of things.
I also found a love for things hands on as well as language, psychology, and math!
