What a specifically marvelous week...and it's only Wednesday!!!
Monday- Meet with Spiritual Companion at hole in the wall, yet enchanting, Mexican cafe for dinner. Have an arousing conversation about graffiti as an art form, teaching art in Chicago, and the multiple reasons it may be time to get off the grid and run into the wilderness...Wonder into Harrison Park Field House after dinner...find swimmers, boxers, gymnists, and a flyer for a new Art school opening in September 2009....put it in my backpack..
Tuesday- Track practice with the girls. Tell them about the little dramas of my life, and get insightful pre-teen advice on major problems. Run a good mile and half. Witness a pretty serious car accident while we are running. Stop to say a prayer and watch the sun come out beyond the rain clouds...
Wednesday- Have a good morning with 7th and 8th grade art classes, as they continue to design sport centers....Mention the Art HS to Arturo, a student with extreme artistic ability, but also a learning disability...find out he is very much interested and wants to work with me on his portfolio...realize this is a challenge considering my limited background, but know I can find him the help he needs.....end the day with 6th grade, all of which are sad when they leave my class because it was "so much fun!" Realize God put me in the right place...
