When you were born to stand out? All I needed to know I learned in kindergarten. I remember that book. It came out when I was in middle school and we have an awesome substitute teacher who actually motivated me to read more. He had me curious about Satanic Verses when nobody else in the world would talk to me about it. I remember this book and him talking about it…we had to be 25 years apart at the time. To me, as an 11 or 12 year old? It was a joke! But to him, it was eye opening and true. When I watch videos like this, and as I get older, life gets simpler. A little clearer. A lot more … well, many other things. But in things like this it does get simpler.
So let’s do this. #iamgrateful and #iamthankful to Rita G Patel for sharing this and reminding me to keep the fun in my daughter’s homework. She loves it right now. And that’s because the lines don’t matter. I hope she never unlearns that.
