Funnily enough when I was researching this topic I found nothing that
fit what I wanted to express and explore. I could find no articles or videos
directly connecting learning to soulfulness. So here goes…
The world has always been a jungle gym of learning for me. I am a
knowledge addict. Prior to the birth of the internet I spent much of my
time perusing the plentiful shelves of books that sit there welcoming
me at the various libraries in my vicinity. I ‘dated’ all the libraries at
the same time with wild abandon and no regard for loyalty. They
embraced and accepted me unconditionally and invited me into the
cult of free learning. When plonking my teetering stack of books
onto the librarian’s counter I would laugh and ask if they had
initiated a library gold card membership yet. While reading I could
connect with the internal souls and minds of the authors I read. See the
world through their eyes-open new doors, outlooks, possibilities…
Of course becoming a teacher bloomed so naturally out of my
adoration for learning. After I overcame my fear of standing in
front of a sea of 30 skeptical pubescent critics, I began to release
my passion and love for whatever topic I was teaching. My
students were ignited and my learning revolution exploded.
My students were partners in learning teaching me just as much
as I relayed to them. Watching them take steps on the teeter
totter of learning was as thrilling as seeing a toddler take its
first steps.
The thirst for knowledge crosses all boundaries or race, religion,
age, gender etc. It is there for the sharing. It is when we are isolated
from new and exciting learning experiences that our life becomes
stale and stagnant-limiting our body, mind and souls evolution.
Learning thrives on being spread contagiously.
As hard as I may try to just be in the moment-my addiction for
knowledge is always tugging away at my coattails, whispering
for me to come and play.
It keeps me well
It grounds me
It fills me with wonder
It is unconditional
It is evolutionary
It is the air that I breathe
It is freedom
It is the broken loaf of bread I share
It is evolution…
Learn for life
Learn for love
Learn for passion…

Today’s focus is to embrace learning as a tool to
open our souls and assist us in evolving as people.
