Life gets away

I have been meaning to write for so long but life seems to have a way of speeding by these days. Time is an interesting thing. When I was a kid time seemed to crawl. When it was Thanksgiving, Christmas seemed like such a long way off. Now it seems like it will be here when I wake up tomorrow. So as the time is zooming by, I am plugging away at this project and trying to enjoy the simple moments with my kids. Like my youngest daughters first time in the snow. Reading books and playing word games with my 3 almost 4 year old. Snuggling up and doing crafty family projects.

Rest asured that the project is still very much alive and well. We are working hard with this building partner to get a space deal together - hoping I will be able to reveal the actual place soon. Fund raising is slow and steady which makes sense given the economy. I am reading a great book called The Common Vision - Parenting and Educating for Wholeness about the educational philosophies of Steiner, Aurabindo and Inayat Khan. It is amazing to me that what these guys have been saying has been around for so long (since the early 1900s) and it had no taken stronger hold on the way that the masses conceive of education. I know that there is an evolution to shifts in thinking, and that some people are just ahead of the curve, but come on people - 100 years! Hell, Ba and Josette have been writing about this for 25 years and it is still a struggle at times to find people who can truely "dig it" if you catch my drift. But hey, I am not letting it stop me, watch out, make way, let's create a revolution! One... small... step... at... a... time.
