Something in the Air
Although I have written a few positive posts about my commute, I have written a lot more grouchy posts. Maybe it is the nature of commuting. Whenever anyone asks me about my commute at work, I answer that it isn’t … Continue reading

The Power of the Puppy
It really won’t matter if you are a cat person or a dog person or a no animals person. You should find something warm in this post. I got on the subway after work, much like I always do. It … Continue reading

Happiness Arithmetic: Easier Than Algebra
And one day the student shall become the teacher. As I became a teacher (sometimes joyfully, sometime begrudgingly, sometimes with a clear view of the irony and karmic significance), this saying is somewhat prophetic. However, in it’s less literal … Continue reading

An Award Update and Encouragement
I just wanted to do two things. Thank everyone for their positive comments on the Promotion of Positive Spirit Award. I want to especially thank Quinn, who selflessly created a fantastic graphic that you can now post on your site. … Continue reading

She looked me straight in the eyes and said, “Your eyes make sweet dreams when I sleep.” These were the words of student of mine to me. Her English level is low, so I might be doing a little bit … Continue reading
