I think the author leaned too hard on the "writing as self- psychoanalysis" idea. It's much simpler than that for me. It <I>is</I> about creative expression and challenging myself to succeed at something that is incredibly difficult.<BR/><BR/>But I imagine he'd tell you I'm in denial. ;-)<BR/><BR/>Lisa, Albert Einstein was a "hopeless" daydreamer who did poorly in school. Yet we see parents and teachers who still don't understand that daydreaming is not a sign of laziness, but of a very active mind.Brenda Coulterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13528691681455659296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9791523.post-1142341049974785152006-03-14T07:57:00.000-05:002006-03-14T07:57:00.000-05:00I've always said I'm living in my own little dream...I've always said I'm living in my own little dreamworld.<BR/><BR/>My son has been told by his teachers, on more than one occasion, to stop daydreaming and start working. <BR/><BR/>Sometimes, it's during those daydreams that we do our best work. :-)<BR/><BR/>Great picture, Brenda.Lisa Jordanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16334253815212707025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9791523.post-1142314595234990412006-03-14T00:36:00.000-05:002006-03-14T00:36:00.000-05:00I just found this the other night. http://www.bks...I just found this the other night. http://www.bksp.org/secondarypages/articles/authors/DMorrell1.htm<BR/><BR/>Let me know what you think. I'm with you. Some of my teachers crushed my dreams. More people tore them down than built them up. I want to make sure I never do that.<BR/><BR/>Although I find it sad that it took a long time to find this stuff out, I'm glad I found out and can be something for someone out there hurting.~michelle pendergrasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04963999375035588206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9791523.post-1142271930893618102006-03-13T12:45:00.000-05:002006-03-13T12:45:00.000-05:00cool picture,dream on girl! :)cool picture,<BR/>dream on girl! :)jelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09468151130326112121noreply@blogger.com
