Hello, Ann,
"Become what thou art"? If you are something already, why do you need to
become it? What is the point? You already are it. My old Alma Mater says
"Be all you can be", then provides many of the materials and help to make a
person rise to as high as he can. Just like working in GPS, a few of us
really excell, like Mary Ellen for example. Over the years, I have watched
her start from absolute zero ("What is GPS, anyway?") to now, where that
system is like a pair of eyes to her, and Sendero should hire her to
advertise and teach for them. Now, as for me, I am on the other end of the
scale. Most of the time, my Earthmate won't even come om properly, and I
have never been able to get it to register a location so I can return to it
under guidance. Well, as Mary Ellen did, I'm just going to keep slogging
along. Soon, I am sure, I will finally rise to the level of my own
incompetence. The more I learn, the more I realize that I don't know. Also
soon, I know that I will know absolutely everything about absolutely
nothing!!

Hi all,
Hey, anything that makes a person learn something new is good. It may be a hard lesson. It may cause some difficulties, but once learned, it's part of the growing tree that's you. My old Alma Mater has a motto. "As the great oak must from the acorn start, so be our endeavor, become what thou art." The seal of the school is an acorn and an oak leaf together.
