Remembering who I am
Vicki Davis
I am not an avatar nor am I an id I am not my twitter nor my SL identity I am not my diigo and wikis aren't me I'm a mom and a teacher in all simplicity. Tis easy to get caught up in "being something" more when what I am to be is often the two feet on my floor. No one else can hug my kids nor wipe a wet tear love the unlovely or calm the raw fear. The pressure from "somewhere" to be some kind of star is deceiving and distracting from helping us be who we are. Balance, perspective, focus, and time offline will become successful habits of the overachieving mind. Reject the invisible hand that pushes you to stress think what you want and how time should be spent best. Choose your life's course, don't just flow with the stream, you can be more...but it should fit with your dream.
