It seems that renewing thoughts always fill my mind this time of year. I start back into the routine of teaching and pour myself into the planning, goals and visions I have for the new group of students I am teaching this year in both writing/literature and piano. It's so rewarding to see how the flowers bloom in the spring after being nurtured and fed in the fall, growing deep in the winter and then VOILA!
Routines provide me with the structure that I long for in my life. I love being inside the box, knowing what is expected of me and reaching for way beyond that - for ME! I am challenged by the goal of perfection...sometimes stressful, mostly enjoyable....
