Waiting for Superman – How can you shine your Green Light on our education system?

Life in the School of Hard Knocks – in the U.S.A. The future of our nation? Closely connected to the success of our education system. The award-winning documentary, “Waiting for Superman,” sounds a clear and powerful wake-up call for America. (See the DVD for updates.) One alarming fact in many: for graduation rates, among 28 industrialized nations, the U.S. ranks #20.

This wide-ranging, developing disaster is a three-Red-Light/worst case condition. Unbelievable dropout rates – at astonishingly young ages. Illiteracy.  Doors of opportunity locked before children even have a chance to knock. Let us wake up, stand up and aim our Greenest intentions to addressing this unacceptable, un-American situation.

What can YOU do, with your creativity, your Green Light heart – and your Green Light ACTIONS? Let us work to remedy and to reverse this failure to serve our most vulnerable – and our very future.

Sustain the land of the free and the home of the brave by helping to assure we educate our next generation. NOW. Thank you – on behalf of those children, their families, our future – and the American dream.

Tripping out!

In a conversation I overheard, an older woman telling her daughter, “I’m going on my last big trip.” “Oh, you’ve been saying that for 10 years now – and look how many big trips you’ve taken!” her daughter said.

The older woman added an unnecessary element of sadness and finality that diminished the joys of anticipation that she could have been experiencing instead. She Redded on herself a bit. What if she changed just one word in her statement?

“I’m going on my last big trip.”
“I’m going on my next big trip.”

She could have Greened her viewpoint – and added to her own delight, as well as that of the other person.

In the next few days, keep your ears open for any similar thinking – opportunities to Green up your NEXT thought – and viewpoint.
