At least my life. I\u2019ve been writing since I was in elementary school. When I graduated college and became a teacher, I continued to write. I was considered a reflective practitioner, sharing my thoughts, expectations, anxieties and goals throughout my career. After I retired in 2006 I still found time to write. This blog is the collection of works continuing the theme of things I\u2019ve done and things I\u2019ve learned throughout my years as a student, teacher and storyteller. I will admit that some of the things that I\u2019ve written about are fiction, but all are based on fact. So the challenge to myself is to take those events, continue to expound upon them and see what insights I can provide about myself, things I interact with, and life, what choices have been made and what changes have occurred to me and my world? I would guess that everyone does not share the same experiences or opinions that I do. Does everyone talk to animals as if they were people? Whether you do or you don\u2019t enjoy the experience. We have more in common with each other than you think.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A to Z Blog Challenge 2016: Theme Reveal &#8211; Life\u2019s Choices\/Life\u2019s Changes Since this is my first attempt at an A to Z blog challenge I decided to go with something that I\u2019m quite familiar with, \u201cLife\u201d.
