Students Wonder Enough

More From Jane Jacobs

If i marry: he must be so tall that when he is on his knees, as one has said he reaches all the way to heaven. his shoulders must be broad enough to bear the burden of a family. his lips must be strong enough to smile, firm enough to say no, and tender enough to kiss. love must be so deep that it takes its stand in christ and so wide that it takes the whole lost world in. he must be active enough to save souls. he must be big enough to be gentle and great enough to be thoughtful. his arms must be strong enough to carry a little child.
Strong Children Kissing
He thinks about her, at this moment, in her house, a few thin walls away, packing her life into boxes and bags and he wonders what memories she is rediscovering, what thoughts are catching in her mouth like the dust blown from unused textbooks. he wonders if she has buried any traces of herself under her floorboards. he wonders what those traces would be if she had. and he wonders again why he thinks about her so much when he knows so little to think about.
Wall Memories Thinking
Consciousness-based education is education that is in most ways exactly like regular education, but with the added technique of transcendental meditation. transcendental meditation, or tm as it's often referred to, allows students to dive in and experience the unbounded ocean of consciousness within each of us, the big treasury, the field within each of us that is the base of all matter and all mind. it's been found that transcending and experiencing that unbounded, eternal level of life does wonders for education, and for human beings.
Ocean Meditation Mind
Absence of gratitude is the mark of the narrow, uneducated mind. it bespeaks a lack of knowledge and the ignorance of self-sufficiency. it expresses itself in ugly egotism and frequently in wanton mischief. we have seen our beaches, our parks, our forests littered with ugly refuse by those who evidently have no appreciation for their beauty. i have driven through thousands of acres of blackened land scourged by a fire evidently set by a careless smoker whose only concern had been the selfish pleasure gained from a cigarette.
Beach Gratitude Appreciation
...academic credentials are neither a necessary nor a sufficient condition for having your ideas taken seriously. if a famous professor repeatedly says stupid things, then tries to claim he never said them, there's no rule against calling him a mendacious idiot - and no special qualifications required to make that pronouncement other than doing your own homework.conversely, if someone without formal credentials consistently makes trenchant, insightful observations, he or she has earned the right to be taken seriously, regardless of background.
Stupid Taken Ideas
Life is filled with suffering, but it is also filled with many wonders, like the blue sky, the sunshine, the eyes of a baby. to suffer is not enough. we must also be in touch with the wonders of life. they are within us and all around us, everywhere, any time.

Mother Baby Jobs
I feel that the connection with children and mothers is so strong in places where there are not so many 'things' to get in the way, no electronic distraction devices, no high-tech baby equipment, just a mother carrying her little one everywhere, sharing a family bed and having the help of all the other women around to raise the baby.
