Hello and welcome to my new adventure.  I'm a real live educator in Texas - even earned my doctorate from Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas.  I love working in the education field and I love the Internet.  I personally enjoy learning by doing and I've wanted to learn more about the Internet, alas, this blog is my foray into learning as I go. 

My intention for this blog is to keep it informal and to share some of my thoughts on life and education.

I thought a good place to start was to mention some of my favorite quotes that I try to incorporate into my daily life.

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
Eleanor Roosevelt

It was a high counsel that I once heard given to a young person, "Always do what you are afraid to do."
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Without inspiration the best powers of the mind remain dormant. There is a fuel in us which needs to be ignited with sparks.
Johann Gottfried Von Herder

If you want to succeed in the world must make your own opportunities as you go on. The man who waits for some seventh wave to toss him on dry land will find that the seventh wave is a long time a coming. You can commit no greater folly than to sit by the roadside until some one comes along and invites you to ride with him to wealth or influence.
John B. Gough

Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.
Wayne Gretzky

What nobler employment, or more valuable to the state, than that of the man who instructs the rising generation.
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Education is the mother of leadership.
Wendell L. Willkie

It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken
joy in creative expression and knowledge.
Albert Einstein

Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Nine-tenths of education is encouragement.
Anatole France
