So every day when I come “home” from class, I stare at my world map and wonder off into deep thought … “this world has much to teach me.” Whether it’s Tunisia being a peaceful country in comparison to other countries that are primarily Muslim or educating youngsters about religion in schools – getting “out of the box,” or (as my friends and students often hear me say) “off the hamster wheel,” has been eye opening, jaw dropping … simply awesome!! Today, we got into groups and (my group) evaluated the field of education according to its "integrity." Without getting into too much detail, I came out of it feeling that to some degree we're all part of corruption and control - regardless of the field that we're in ... Sad, isn't it? But ... it's the harsh reality!
Each day I am awe struck at the world’s situation, what we have done in terms of destruction, the benevolent actions/results that have emerged as a result of conflict and the things that we, as human beings, have not done.This world does, indeed, have much to teach me … and much to teach you!
