What Inspires Me . . .
"The only source of knowledge is experience.", Albert Einstein. Einstein may be accurate in terms of ones source of knowledge that can lead to experience, but if one is only seeking knowledge over time; that would be a tragedy! If we have only what we have experienced, we truly have nothing. If we have INSPIRATION along our journey of experiences, than we have more than we can ever experience. It is the inspiration of others, the books I read, and the places I visit that continues to motivate me to become a better person; because our reach must always exceed our grasp if we are to be considered growing, learning and impacting lives.
My 28 years of experience as an coach, project coordinator, community servant, videographer, ELA, Social Studies and Technology Integration Specialist teacher has not just allowed me to 'gather' knowledge; it has provided myself opportunities to experience some inspiring moments, collaborate with inspiring leaders/people, read inspiring books, work with some of the most inspiring young minds and travel to some of the most inspiring places. As a lifelong learner, it is these experiences that are of INSPIRATION to me as I have gained experience! It is inspiration that stirs the soul of the human condition and eventually will true transformation lives. These are just a slice of some of those amazing 'experiences' that inspire me.
