Tonight I am re-reading the writing I did on this blog. For over a year it sustained me in a time of creative drought. It pains me that I haven't had the time to engage with this blog, but at the same time, I want to acknowledge that I have been investing my energy in other areas: getting involved in my Union, and trying to rally community engagement around issues in education so that we can take it back from the corporate interests that dominate the profession. I've also been trying my hand at other types of writing.
I'm not sure how long it will be until I return this way whole-heartedly, though it is never far from my mind. Therefore, I share with you the blog entries I am most proud of (in chronological order). Most of them relate music to my life on a personal level, a few of them are intellectual, analytical. All of them reveal a piece of my heart.
