Almost There!

Well, we are at the half-way point in this semester and I can hardly believe that I have really read those chapters. While I have been pleasantly surprised by how much I have enjoyed the readings, the expectations of what an effective reading specialist looks like is , however, a bit intimidating. Only 9 more chapters to go!

My quote for the week is:
A college degree is not a sign that one is a finished product but an indication a person is prepared for life. by Reverend Edward A. Malloy, Monk's Reflections
I guess what this means is we're never done with learning just because we're done with our respective undergraduate and/or graduate programs. I think that the quotation would be more applicable to me if it said, "an indication that a person is preparing for life." because in real life, we don't stop preparing for life.

  1. I like the thought, Faye! And though it is a bit daunting to think that we're still not done (or will never be done!), I guess we're still around because we sincerely find joy in the journey.

  2. I agree with Christine, although we're half way through our journey, the joy is in the sharing...it makes it all the more easier when your not alone.
