MIND SHAPER connects us to one another in this rapid, global cultural integration. Your experiences will go from simple emoting to showing an eminent capacity to reason. Education, in its broadest sense, is found more on the outside of a classroom than within its four walls. The exploration, observation and connection to the things that attract our attention the most, are the things that free us from the bondage of not growing to our full potential.
The hardship we 'suffer' in a classroom, however, often gives us the fortitude to create a healthy balance in making choices in the future for ourselves and the minds that we will shape.
Enjoy the spirit in which MIND SHAPER is written; one that brings home reality in smiles of what we know either can and sometimes will happen or serious reflection. Further, I dare readers to attempt to read BRAWTA. *****************************
A FEW POEMS FROM MIND SHAPER
WARM
Warm, kind curtain Cool and calm Flowing free, Free from harm; Shelter in the misty morn Crown me while I move around. Ler me hear all musical sounds. Captivate my soul at last. How I managed in th past It's hard to tell, hard to know Never ever had it flow. Brown and black and grey and white, Freckles showing bright at night. Great body moves, ooh nice and slow Fast and elegant but now it grows On a level playing field; A head full of locks; Locks that at just like a shield And thoughts, fresh ideas Flowing forth again, brown sugar, Easy-going, educated, sharing Crazy, crazy, crazy...caring.

HAIKU
Naked leafless tree
Harsh winter winds keep blowing
Summoning the spring.
************************** MIND SHAPER
Recruit the untrained minds
And teach them new disciplines.
Wasted time and exploration
Of the unknown, will cause
Further curiosity into
Unnecessary trouble and the
Perfection of the art of doing
Nothing...endlessly.
An early start in the day, in the
Education and the whole life,
Shows vision, finds ways and means,
Encourages action...perpetually.
Knows various non-traditional,
Novel practices, evokes a higher
Mental approach, sees the end,
Knows no obstacle, builds character
From new experiences and looks again
For another eighty six thousand four hundred seconds
