It is unfortunate that our free public school system has made education seem temporary and not really worth very much. As often happens with gifts, they do not retain their real value. For some reasons, we tend to lose sight of the real value of things in our lives when they are free. Freedom among them.
Back to education, though, are you growing? Personally, I mean?
One of the primary messages of the Open Your Heart series (and Elfreda’s excellent book, as well) is that we continue to grow… or we start to die.
In Open Your Heart with Skiing, every chapter has two parts: the first part is about skiing; skills, concepts, experiences. The second part is about life. It’s fascinating to me how much skiing parallels life and teaches us.
To learn, though, you have to be willing. You have to be looking for ways to grow. Are you looking for ways to grow?
What will you learn this week?
Let’s go!
