The Southwest Community Education Summer program is a huge success every year. It is a complete joy to watch the smiles and hear the noises of joy as the little ones march through the building, dance to the music or parade to the lake for fishing and other exciting adventures.
Young children remind us of the thrill of learning and new discovery. Their entire body is alive with energy as they try new things, make new friends and explore the world of grass and lakes and paint and all the stuff little ones do. Summer is the time of discovery and exploration. It is a time to run, twist and turn almost uncontrolled as the winter limits of cold and heavy clothes keep up from doing.
In these summer months we need to re-find our youth. We need to go to new places and explore new sights. The city parks are full of summer fun and evening concerts. The museums and zoos are great places to be young and see anew. Exploring and smiling should have no age limit. Finding joy in the waters and exhibits does not need to be reserved for the young. Release your mind to look at the world in fresh, uncomplicated ways just for a moment, for an afternoon.
School's Out For The Summer is classic that makes reference to a mindset as well as a calendar reminder. The next tasks to to see how long we can maintain that thrill of exploration and learning.
