Dear friends,
The countdown has begun! Am I happy to finish with this course ? Yes and no ? Two words that do not go together, but sometimes they get together to reveal a reality. As far as I am concerned, I feel like quitting this place where there are a lot of demanding works, a lot of worries, and sometimes a lot of anxieties wondering where we're going. But while contemplating the knowledge I acquire from each difficult and absorbing task, the joy provided by the result coming out from the solutions even when they are not perfect, the warm and comforting companionship of my coursemates and monitors, I don't want to go. I still need this constant search of self awareness and understanding of my physical and human environment to help more people discover themselves and the world about them. This is why we are among our students, trying to find out the best ways to help them learn.
This week, we learned or we are learning how to accompany a large number of people at the same time. Technology comes to help and even takes account of schools where money is rare. Friendly transmission of skills is worth more than money. Good will,brought forth by the contacts and the knowledge we acquire through our constant education and especially in this program, creates situations where people feel good together and really want to live and share. This is our goal to have people live out of our services, our pains, our dificulties and our joy. That is the texture of our profession.
This week, I also went through the draft of the final project. Am I going to call it a report? It has been for me a project, a plan for the future. I have not taught all this term. I hope I will be teaching soon. I will use then the many technics and values you all friends imparted to me.
The countdown has begun, but we are not parting. We're still together. We have two more weeks to go. Let's enjoy them

Dear Roland,
ReplyDeleteReading your post made me sad. Yes, soon we are going to say "good-bye", but I will be happy that I have come to know so many wonderful people. Although I haven't seen anyone, I feel everyone a close friend. We shared many ideas, comments and opinion, as if we were talking together all the time seeing one another. I will miss everyone.
It's too early for such emotions. We still have time to continue learning. There are two more weeks. It's quite a time when you want to do something sufficient. Let's get ready for the last efforts before we part!
My best regards,
Zlatka

Hi Roland,
ReplyDeleteIt is funny because only now, almost at the end of this journey, I have the feeling of "knowing" my colleagues. I start remembering their names, things they commented, and ideas they shared. Of course, there is not going to be an end, because I am sure this "net" is not going to be diminished with the end of our course. And the links will be even stronger and stronger.
I also share with you the idea that waht we are producing now is more a project than a report. There is so much to try, that it will take a long way for us to come to some results. ANd then, we change, and try again, and again...
