Hi Jodi!
My husband and I are reading _A New Earth_ by Eckhart Tolle right now. It's
a great book, really helpful in identifying the shared human dysfunction of
an over-active ego. Being "in the mind" so much is suffering for all of
us. The book goes into depth about how to be aware of your thoughts,
without believing they make you who you ARE. It's about finding your true,
authentic SELF, that stillness inside that's in-tact, always and forever, no
matter what story our ego would have us believe.
Along with the book, Oprah & Eckhart are doing a 10 week FREE on-line class,
Monday evenings. You can watch anytime, if Monday's don't work, though.
This is week 2, but John and I are just finishing watching week 1, over
coffee in the morning while our young boys are still sleeping.
The book has really brought much Peace to me, and I thought I was pretty
enlightened already. Oh, so much to learn, always, always, always! :)
It's fascinating, and I really think you might find some clarification there
if you can pick it up, or watch the webcasts.
Much Love from SD,
Karen

Thanks Karen, for the suggestion. I have heard about his new book, but haven't had a chance to look at it yet. I will get to it eventually :).

SCHOOLS CHIEF JACK O'CONNELL ISSUES STATEMENT REGARDING HOME SCHOOLING IN
CALIFORNIA
SACRAMENTO - State Superintendent of Public Instruction Jack
O'Connell announced today that the California Department of Education has
completed a legal review of the February 28 California Court of Appeal
ruling regarding home schooling. O'Connell issued the following statement:
"I have reviewed this case, and I want to assure parents that
chose to home school that California Department of Education policy will not
change in any way as a result of this ruling. Parents still have the right
to home school in our state.
"Every child in our state has a legal right to get an education, and I want
every child to get an education that will prepare them for success in
college and the world of work in the challenging global economy.
"As the head of California's public school system, I hope that every parent
would want to send their children to public school. However, traditional
public schools may not be the best fit for every student. Within the public
school system there are a range of options available. Students can take
independent study classes, attend a charter school, or participate in
non-classroom- based programs. But some parents choose to send their children
to private schools or to home school, and I respect that right.
"I admire the dedication of parents who commit to oversee their children's
education through home schooling. But, no matter what educational program a
student participates in, it is critical that the program prepares them for
future success in the global economy. I urge any parent who is considering
or involved in home schooling their children to take advantage of resources
and support available through their county or district offices of
education."
