[tips] Random Thought: Play-Doh
So, there I was, in the waiting area of the Atlanta airport, waiting--and waiting--and waiting. I was futilely struggling to concentrate on my Chinese language lessons. I felt like a Jekyll and Hyde, exhilarated and, though I kept my promise to Susan not to over do it, emotionally drained and physically dog-tired. I had just spent what for me were three intense days in Greensboro, NC, at the Lily-South Conference on College and University Teaching. Susan had every right to be nervous and ask that I check in with her every day. It was the first time since my cerebral hemorrhage that I've gone off on my own. I was biting at the bit to get there. You see, for me Lily-South was both a coming out and a coming home party. There were hardy hand-shakes, tight hugs, toasts, and some kisses. A couple of people, hearing I would be there, brought glad you're still with us presents. It was a humbling time that brought tears to my eyes and chokes in my throat on more than one occasion. Aside from my Susan's arms and the classroom, the Lily gatherings are one of the most comfortable places for me. It's when and where I'm doing what I'm supposed to do. It's very natural to me, and I am extraordinarily grateful. At Lily, I did not see one person, not one, who was there to impress anyone with any credentials however so impressive so many were. We all were there as learners. No one was there regretting that she or he should be somewhere else doing something else. We each were there to help others learn with all the fullness and richness we could imagine, with all the creativity and imagination we could muster. It was a time of a lot of listening. It was a time of making new friends. Maybe the most important thing was in a session on getting students to dream I was once again reminded that through thick and thin, ups and downs, sickness and health, I know one thing for sure. Just to be alive is a magnificent thing that is not to be wasted for one moment; that whatever we focus on grows more influential in our lives; that far too many of us define themselves by the difficulties that come our way and how others define us rather than by the possibilities and our own true selves, that this conference and other Lily conferences, and the supporting and encouraging networks we consequently weave, help us to focus on possibilities and our potential rather than on those problems and limits. There are lots of reasons to surrender; there are lots of reasons not to surrender. The question is which we each choose to focus on is our choice and our choice alone. But, I also left Greensboro with all sorts of new ideas bouncing around in my head on how to improve in the classroom. I'm now figuring out how to incorporate You Tube into my classes. I learned about things to tweak and improve my getting to know you classroom community building exercises. And, I learned to improve my syllabus. You see, you can always teach this young dog new tricks. Anyway, sitting next to me in the airport was a mother reading a book. Her little boy was playing with a batch of differently shaped and colored Play-Doh. Getting nowhere with Chinese, I put down my textbook and watched, and watched, and watched. He pressed his finger into a small square of a blue piece and left a hole. He rolled a cigar shaped yellow piece on the less-than-clean carpeted floor. Bits and pieces of all kinds of what was once invisible yucky stuff became embedded that was impossible to remove. I asked the mother for permission to play with the boy. When she agreed, the child in me came out. I told the boy to take a green piece, flatten it, and press it against a comic strip of a newspaper that was lying on a near-by seat. To his amazement, when he pulled the piece back, it mirrored the pictures. Then, we took a red piece and rolled it against my skin. I showed him that every hair left its mark. Finally, just before my boarding call, he pulled away another piece and pressed it hard against my sweater. When he pulled it away, he showed me every impression of the fibers as well as the embedded fibers themselves. As a present, he gave me a few pieces. On the plane to Valdosta, thinking about that upcoming glass of wine with Susan, I started to unthinkingly play with the Play-Doh. I impishly squished it on the tray, rolled it, flattened it, twisted it, and made it into a bagel and pretzel shape. I almost asked what the person sitting next to me was thinking as I noticed his furtive glances. Yet, the longer I played with the Play-Doh, the more serious I became, the more I began to study it, and something began stirring within me. As in the airport, I pressed it against a magazine, against my sweater, against my skin. I stared at the images, the impressions, the marks, the stuff sticking to it. It suddenly hit me. Play-Doh, like those people in the
