“The only difference between

A Teacher and a Student is that

The Student believes that

There is a difference whereas

The Teacher knows there is none.”

~ Wu Hsin

 

The best teachers in all aspects of life are perpetual students, open to learning and letting go of what they have been told is the truth.

Only the ego creates a hierarchy to uphold and defend.

It’s so freeing to step into an other realm where our conditioning doesn’t get in the way of our evolution … and we can play and learn together.

Namaste

    A goal in my life is to be a lifelong student. There is always more to learn and more than one way to “know” the world.

    I learned a great deal about technology from my students
    …. by teaching it. I had no qualms about being “shown up” by students. Some other teachers were mortified but it allowed me to learn how young people think. I’m retired now, know more than my peers about technology, and best of all I think young.
