A 100-Person World

If the world population statistics were broken down and represented by just 100 people (a much easier number to contemplate than the actual global population...this is how it would look.

Update:10/10/15...this actually happened to me today: the very day after I posted this video.  Out for a 5 mile run and my phone/music/run-tracker just bit the dust without warning.  But I remembered this video...and I smiled at everyone I passed, the same way I always do, and I focused in on my breathing a little more and I listened to the beat of my own footsteps instead of the music, and it was music...it was my own.  I didn't need someone else to keep my pace, I have my own.  I already knew the distance, and I could check the clock when I got home to see how long it took.  I think I ran faster than usual, but I don't know and I don't care.  I think I'll go unplugged again tomorrow.

Let's value not only education, but also educators...

...for the teachers, for the students, and for the future

Where Have All the Teachers Gone?

There's a teacher shortage in the U.S. So we got some hardworking teachers to tell us what's wrong with public education.

When push comes to shove...

When push comes to shove we all want the same thing out of life. To love and be loved. That has become a scary word in a time of text messages, social media, and hipocracy. It is a scary word because it means something different to each and everyone of us. Who are we to not approach every person we meet with love? We can learn so much from each other and we all have so much love to give. Take the time to talk to someone you wouldn't normally. Everyone means the world to someone even if they may not think so of themselves. Share the love! It will make the world a better place. We cannot expect respect and love if we do not give it ourselves!

Thanks for sharing A.T.

Alice's Magic

To quote John Lennon:  "You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one."

Step 1: Believe in magic!  

Step 2: Go out and make it happen!

Step 3:  Make others believe by being an example of the magic that is possible in the world!
