Read if you will...

My blog (I have blog on the brain after seeing Julie and Julia) is entitled An Educator's Guess, partly because many of the posts I include deal with education and my experiences as a teacher. But there is another part, a reflection of my life, where I make an educated guess at what's going on. The majority of the time I honestly have no clue, but hope that within the time I spend writing the words which flow from my fingers and make their way to the world wide web, some clarity will be found within and make its way into my heart. This, however, does not always happen.

I often find the need to place a positive spin at the end of my thoughts, for it is how I view life, as messy, complicated, and insane as it can be, I still think there's a silver lining to be found whatever the situation.

And I wonder, I wonder about those who read these random and sometimes pathetic thoughts. I wonder why I feel compelled to put these series of posts out there for so many (or so few) to read. I wonder if I should stop. I wonder if it is truly worthwhile.

Despite these wonderings, I comply with the compulsion which calls me to write. I enjoy the process and reading the results of my perceptions on life as an educator. And I the freedom a blog gives to a writer. An audience who has the chance to respond, disguised anonymity, and an new topic every time. And so I will continue, for now, to blog my thoughts away. Read if you will, enjoy when possible, and allow me to explain a little more of myself to you.
