I’m so happy to hear that! It’s kind of fun to enjoy the sturdy ground underneath you sometimes, as opposed to praying for the next creative earthquake lol

The moral neutrality of the creative process is a revolutionary position. I wish more people wrote about this!!! Loved it, as always ❤️

I love when I read something and I know I’ll be referencing it for years to come. Sooo much gold in this one I can’t wait to keep mining it.

Been there, done that. I am a retired school teacher who had taught for 40 years. I had been a nervous wreck for about 35 of those years. I finally went to the doctor and got some anxiety pills and the last 5 years were a breeze. I wish I had read this piece 40 years ago. I have always been one to try new ideas and projects with my students. But then I get cold feet. It seems I couldn't let the old ways go. I must be dealing with that now. I cannot seem to get a routine going since I retired.

ps. I tried lots of things teaching but I wanted to try more of the new brain related ways of teaching kids and I could have done more.
