Yesterday was the first day of summer, unofficially. People were wearing sleeveless tops, sundresses and shorts. Today will be a great ride. I’m leaving a bit earlier because of the heat I anticipate. Asphalt does a great job of magnifying the temperatures along with the cars driving by. It’s funny, the things you begin to recall as the season changes.
Last night we went to a reception for a very senior university leader, a woman no less, who will be stepping back. As people were discussing her many accomplishments, I began to wonder about my own. I’ve done nothing like what she has done, but my experiences have been all my own, the good and the bad.
As I move forward, taking those experiences and somehow sharing them with others interested in learning will be my new direction. I’ve always enjoyed teaching, but not in a formal educational institution format. Just in small groups. Beyond this statement, nothing else is really planned. And that’s were I get to be creative.
On to building something new!
