If you never know what you want to be, if you live what some might call the dynamic life but what I will call the artistic life, if each day you are unsure of who you are and what you know you will never become anything, and that is your reward. #employment

Between the writing for the tarot, the tarot class that’s about to be launched, the Beneath the Half Moon blog, and the painting I have to do for an upcoming show, I have confined myself to art slavery.  Here’s how I have managed to not drive myself crazy. #schedule

So that you can’t separate the neurological functioning of a human being from the environment in which he or she grew up in and continues to exist in. And this is true throughout the life cycle. It’s particularly true when you are dependent and helpless when your brain is developing but it’s true even in adults and even at the end of life. #Interpersonal Neurobiology

Learning in the 21st Century, although undeniably influenced (positively in my opinion) by technology, is more about how we think, how we need to think and most importantly how we think together. This is where the learning focus should be now understanding that throughout the 21st Century, a continued and more intense focus on "now" will help us navigate our present circumstances effectively while ensuring that we have learned as much as we can to prepare us for the relatively unpredictable state of tomorrow. #pedagogy
