Description

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

 

To elaborate and stabilize

 

The generation coming forth,

 

In preparation for a new day

 

And a different battle.
