Credos

Page 51: Ate 021211

My Dream

To serve, to help, to contribute to the future using carefully selected, polished, and refined skills, attitudes, and information, I dream.

To struggle with complex problems and to live with paradoxes, remaining undefeated and determined, I dream.

To see the sky, the moon, the ocean, and the stars in the smallest child and the poorest parent, I dream.

To help that smallest child and poorest parent discover their own unique  and special universe, I dream.

To grow each day more serene, more open to new perspectives, more willing to abandon personal opinions, I dream.

Page 52: Ate 021211

To retire each night totally exhausted yet thoroughly fresh and refreshed, I dream.

To light candles, carry torches, run marathons, and catch tears, I dream.

To go upstream to sources and change flow and current as needed, I dream.

To create joyous, harmonious experiences with children using insights from observations and careful study, I dream.

To help children construct their own castles and pursue their own adventures, I dream.

To build self-confidence and passion, I dream.

To be adopted and ever after thoroughly belonging to the children and their future, I dream.

I Want To Be … 

Firefighter… And extinguish brush fires and to contain the massive forest fires.

Police Officer… And restore order as needed when the few try to push the limits of the system.

Architect…Who creates a blueprint on a crisp piece of paper, painstakingly pursuing angles and measures, hoping it will turn out to be a magnificent structure in real form some day.

Athlete… Who will train for hours and hours, sweat and ache from the self-inflicted physical tortures, just to say, I did it.

 Musician…Who simply by adding numbers and “letters” together in a harmonious way and creates the most stunning pieces of musical work.

Page 54: Ate 021211

 Mechanic…Who takes a broken piece of machinery, assesses the problem,  and finds a way to minimize sometimes even eliminate the problem.

Physical Therapist…To help mend an injured body, push the physical limitations,  even make the impossible, possible again.

Statistician…To explore, study, and develop a pattern to describe how the world works.

 Any-ologist…Because I just want to study thing “things,” and explore what makes the world work.

Computer Programmer…And take a blank piece of composite material, fill it with data so that some day It will be able to form and “think” on its own.

Page 55: Ate 021211

Gardener…To watch a vulnerable seedling  grow into a hardy and fruitful perennial that will continue to grow each year with only a little assistance during the toughest times.

Auditor…And be one of the most despised members of the community, to find flaws and insist on modifications.

Lawyer… To have the most absurd argument, present it to the public, and win.

Baker…To take unassuming bland ingredients, carefully thinking about their combinations when mixed together and emerge from the kitchen with a  rich and tasty dessert.

However, I know you sit there and think, “Silly girl, you’ll never be able to do all that in one lifetime!” Even so, I say, “I can and I will because it very simple you see - I want to be a teacher.”
