I agree that we need teachers at every major stage in our lives.Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12831169405732892599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3607441034503290367.post-31693449966867568772009-06-23T22:42:40.537-07:002009-06-23T22:42:40.537-07:00I love the first proverb.

Interestingly, in the space of one hour this evening, I received emails from two former students, catching me up on their lives.<br /><br />In my 20 years as a therapist, I used to joke that adolescence really ended about age 33. This jibes a bit with Teacher Chin's thoughts, and I was only half joking. In truth, I think we ocscillate in and out of serial childhoods throughout our lives: we circle round and round to the need of Teacher Chins in our lives. <br /><br />I love, too, her passion, and her putting you all on notice about the journeys you were about to embark upon. There's an Alice in Wonderland quality to your journeys down the rabbit hole, urgent and compelling.murat11https://www.blogger.com/profile/00663364407992075130noreply@blogger.com
