how i discovered my secret powers
by Keri Smith (image below links to pdf)
on play..
Every day brought forth unlimited potential for creation.
And then I would have to go back to school again and I would feel suffocated…
And then I had a thought (a few thoughts actually)…
What if everything I had been taught about myself in school was wrong?
What if the opposite of everything was true?
What if I had the power to create anything that I conceived of?
What if the world was magic and I was able to see things that others could not for a
reason?I looked at everything as a tourist would (including my own life), as if I had never seen it before.
Since we canʼt know what knowledge will be most needed in the future, it is
senseless to try to teach it in advance. Instead, we should try to turn out people
who love learning so much and learn so well that they will be able to learn
whatever needs to be learned.” –john holt
