a more promising future
I had an interview for a prospective teaching job this morning. While waiting for the administrator in her office, there on the wall were these inspiring, eloquent words by Maya Angelou:
We cannot change the past,
but we can change our attitude toward it.
Uproot guilt
and sow forgiveness.
Tear down arrogance
and seed humility.
Exchange love for hate -
thereby, making
the present comfortable
and the future promising.
but we can change our attitude toward it.
Uproot guilt
and sow forgiveness.
Tear down arrogance
and seed humility.
Exchange love for hate -
thereby, making
the present comfortable
and the future promising.

Hi Duane - hope that something goods comes from your interview. Volunteering is also a good way to network and make connections for employment. My volunteer experiences played a major part in obtaining my current position. You always have such a great attitude...I love reading your blog and keeping up with your life.

Beautiful!!!
Good Luck! I love that quote. I think I might have to use that sometime as well.
Mr. Duane,
I am so excited you're venturing into the literacy/teaching field.
The world needs more compassionate, and understanding teachers like you.
Sending you so much love,
B
