JOURNAL TOPIC: [today's tunes: "Break on Through" by The Doors]
(With Huxley's "The Doors of Perception" in mind...)
As
Alexander Graham Bell observed, "When one door closes another door
opens; but we so often look so long
and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones
which open for us." What doors are open for you right now? What
opportunities do you have to take a positive step in the world that
leaves a valuable footprint in this community?
AGENDA:
1. Journal
2. Discussion: where is your tribe?
3. Continue BNW Foreword
POST:
Several well-documented studies have suggested that many people can be aware of a problem-- and fail to act, because they think someone else will respond. In one case, dozens of residents in an apartment building heard a woman being attacked... and no one helped her because they thought someone else would.
What distinguishes the person who acts, when others merely think about it? How can you use this to your advantage as a student and a member of our community? (title: I'M THE PERSON I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR)
