The beginning of my academia began when I was around 4 years old. I wanted to go to school so badly because it was the next step to growing up. Do you remember always wanting to grow up and be like the adults when you were little? I definitely do, but school for me was a challenge. Academically, I did more than okay. Unfortunately, my take on socially acceptable behaviors, fun subject matter for discussions, and misunderstanding of social ques was very quickly realized young.

A Gift of Wisdom: Journey of an Awakening Soul
A child's first Christmas tree is most often remembered by the parents who took the pictures; pictures that went in a photo album no one ever sees. But, that bright moment stands out in the memories of children around the world. A happy memory. A memory filled with tassel, strung-pop-corn, shiny ornaments, and if we were good little girls and boys, a gift from Santa on Christmas morning. It's a memory filled with magic and wonder. Eyes bright and shining, reflecting the winking lights embedded in the prickly pine, hips jiving to and fro with the beat of the holiday music jamming on the radio. For the child, it is probably one of the brightest and oldest memories she has as her mother or father, grandmother or grandfather, brother or sister, or any other numerous combination of family members handed out the hot coco topped with marshmallow or whipped cream, take your pick; maybe even both!
