Write It Down
I remember that Alice heard the queen tell the king, in her wonderland dream, that if you don't write it down, you'll forget it. And that was about the fanstastic experience he'd just had when Alice picked him up from his struggle to climb to the table top and gently placed him on the table. He was startled and terrified and said he'd never forget that experience and the queen said, "You will if you don't write it down." How true! Even for traumatic events.
I'm finding as I read over my past journals that often I wrote in detail about the onset of various problems but then never wrote the conclusion of them. And now I wonder just how that thing really did turn out.
At one time, for instance, the administration had us teachers all stirred up about cutting all auxiliary teachers, --music, library, art, gym. This would affect all those teachers and all classroom teachers as well for we would be required to teach those subjects though we weren't certified in those areas. It was a really big deal. And then I wrote no more about it. I can't remember how it was settled except that no teachers were cut, no special classes suffered. But how did that come about? I have no memory of any special announcements, or any rumors, either, that told us that status quo would remain. Now, I'm wondering what happened. But I didn't write it down.
