RE: Closing Future Doors

in Reflections • last month

It has become our slightly ridiculous way of communicating eith each other, through our reactions to social media content. Yikes!

Kind of scary, isn't it?

But to balance things in my mind, are thr contributions I make to 100s of lives daily,

This is a big thing to do also and very rewarding. But, what happens if your personal live is too shallow or never has that relationship depth - does it affect the teaching?

and today, it meant slowing down and enjoying Hive again for what it is.

Good to hear and glad to see you here :)

Sort:  

I guess my relationships could affect the teaching, but everyone brings some kind of baggage into the profession. I talk about how much fun our neighborhood is in Brooklyn and stress the importance of being able to solve problems to make better choices. I'll consider it a win if even half my kids are better problem solvers because of me.

Kind of scary, isn't it?

It is weird for sure. It has occupied the space where atand up comedy used to be in my life. I used to watch stand up specials with my ex wives and then we'd chat about whatever topics they brought up in their sets. Now each little TikTok or Instagram story is like its own bit, ready for discussion and looking for a reaction. It is definitely a bit of a change, but I can get with the times!
