A New Year in the Making

The year 2010 does not have to be different from the one we are now leaving behind.  Work can be work; school can be school and kids can and will be kids as usual.  We can paddle along the same braided channels of wishes, hopes and almosts, and once again, pan back to this moment at year’s end and see that once again—nothing much changed.  Or, we can start afresh. 

Resolutions are just that, words said, promises made and hopes often gone unrealized.  Although cliché, the Nike logo “Just Do It” could be our mantra for the upcoming, some might say impending year.  Perhaps it is time to do more, to complain less, to move firmly and purposively in the direction that you want to be headed and to truly make a difference in the lives of the students you serve.

Just a thought…

“When I read about the way in which library funds are being cut and cut, I can only think that American society has found one more way to destroy itself.”
