I continue to consider how anyone can listen and I hold close to one tenet: to truly listen, means you have stop talking. Our powers of listening are more nuanced than I thought. Thanks for "reading."

Pleased to share this reflection on the power that might be realized when (not "if") we choose a path of greater responsibility and optimism. Happy New Year!

Listening can be difficult but is vital. I hope you might "listen" to this reflection~"Why to Listen Like a Bird Watcher."

Hope this is more of a treat than a trick. Hopefully a point or two to consider, amidst the parent-teacher conference "season."

As always, thank you for reading.

@RRapier Robert~we are so very sorry to hear this. Sending you the strength to carry on, knowing that there are so many who care deeply for you and your family.

How often are students asked what they really care about? How often are they provided time to observe their environment and determine problems? What happens if we begin to ask these questions? @mpiercy35 #PersonalizedLearning https://t.co/b18ULVqcn5

"Officially" published as I got a little ahead with "pinning on the tail" before a round of edits. I hope reading this brings a fraction of the enjoyment I had while writing it. Thank you!
