We may..... I think this current stuff is up to us..<br />We may not be able to stake a claim in historic actions which may have led to some of these situations.. but one day.. people may just look back on our generation and say.. what the..!?!.. just as we sometimes do now..when we look back<br />Have no fear, for as sure as we find histories or tales of barbarism.. we can find tales of genius and greatness also<br />Funny really, <br />Teaching children.. you ( and Fundy) both do that.. so cool!<br />If I taught in a secondary school, I'd teach social studies or something - humanities I think they call it now. I love the smell of school halls especially after the holidays..

I hadn't heard what Nigeria's 1st lady said..<br />I know what you mean about creativity - I think that some of the greatest creative endeavors can come from adverse situations at times..<br />Dawnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06426393284664166090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3732892250430269339.post-22330146276452943212014-05-07T23:41:46.189+01:002014-05-07T23:41:46.189+01:00Hey Donna Lee! I was thinking last night, when I ...Hey Donna Lee! I was thinking last night, when I listened to the news, that the US and others were a bit late to the party with their offers to help. The comments of the first lady of Nigeria were interesting; she was saying that the abductions were fabricated and more. I just pray that the girls are not suffering ~ but that seems too naive to pray for. <br />As for Nigerian creativity ~ sometimes I really think that strife and dissonance feeds creativity. I hate to think of all that is happening there. <br />I had a Nigerian student in my third grade class a few years ago. He came from the loveliest family. They were grateful to be in the US. <br />Have a good one!Fundy Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02132147630106183853noreply@blogger.com
