I have just discovered “Ted Talks”, apparently a series on Sci Channel. I recall gazing at it some months ago but the subject was boring and after just a few moments, I changed channels. Today, I note that it is being shown all day, and the first one I saw was unusual and on Sociology. In college I hated sociology and this lecturer was wonderful and interesting. Not only did I stay awake, but I watched the next lecturer, a lady, on Molecular Biology. I suspect most of us have had teachers, instructors, professors that held us in rapture by some magical means, and this is what I’ve been experiencing today. Wow. I once feared the Biblical prophecy that at death all knowledge will be given. Heavens above!! I don’t want to stop learning! Creativity is magic. The ability to learn…is magic. I wish I could impress this feeling on all the children I meet. Sure there are enough bad teachers out there to spoil it for us, but if we only tried, it could be changed.
