This seems to be turning into a series of posts I hadn’t planned to write. But here they are, anyway.

And here’s where we left off.

Choosing your pacemaker

The pacing team isn’t an accident. It’s a choice.

Just because it’s slow (or too fast, or too brutal, or too senseless) around here doesn’t mean it has to stay that way. Or that you have to stay around here.

*****

Skipping the good days

What becomes clear, though, is that good days are precious. When you’re feeling even a little creative, don’t wait. Write it down, roll tape, speak up. When you’re feeling reasonably healthy, go for a walk.

They’re all good days, if we choose.

[Editor’s note: Fucking A, man!]

*****

Useful assumptions for teachers

Assume enrollment;

Assume good intent;

Assume fear;

Assume a lack of context;

Assume connection.

[Editor’s note: And exercise common sense.]
