The Black Male Educator

I think black male educator can have a more detrimental impact on school in certain
demographic.   I personally feel that many school, in abundance  the black male
are employed as custodians, food service, and transportation workers. I understand
that black male are educators, not as a Physical Education teacher or a school coach.
According to Nation Center for Education Statistics, is nearly 82% in Public Schools
teachers in 2011-12 were white. 

The black male first enter the classroom was, one, two, or three that are on staff,
predominantly black school and districts.  Decision are made within a school, are largely
depends on, if they will fit, or how well; at the school.  The black male are largely
underrepresented in our nation's classrooms.

I think parents should know the importance of being involved in their children education
when they are in middle and high school.  Attend parents-teacher conferences or even
volunteering, parents must communicate the importance of education at this age .

I find that some teachers trump over teens to a certain aspects when it come to school
engagements.   

Watch them grow

The mother who carries a child thirty nine weeks of a year.  As she carries this child for nine months, you feel the love of the unborn fetus as the months go by you feel the life coming into the child the
movement of the unborn as it get stronger and stronger you knows when its awake and when its sleeping, you can train it in the womb as it grow when to sleep.  You can read and sing to it you are
programming them to learn.

With a touch of your hand you can feel the heart beat, you can learn their pattern of your child in the
womb.  When the child is born you will be ready if you are a person to jot things down you will know your child well.  When it time to eat, sleep, you will be aware of this time.  You will learn your child
as it grows from birth to  adulthood.

The joy of watching your child grow from a infant in your arms, to  sitting alone, crawl, stand, taking
the first steps, saying their first word, you acknowledge you as mom or dad.   You listen to the words
as they grow.  Off to kindergarten, you may feel a emptiness, may even cry, as they grow you are guiding them along the way to becoming an adult.

Later as they reach adulthood they may become and mother or a father an come to you and say: "Thanks, Mom and Dad for giving me life," and now I have completed college and I'm about to be married and have a child of my own.

I am a mother who standby my children as long as I shall live.  I have enjoyed being a mother, grandmother, and a great grandmother.

Valentine' Day

I think Valentine's Day has downsized; it's no longer a celebration of Romantic Love is more
of a day to embrace with all kind of friendship.  If you have a friend in your life that you are worthy
of .  Here are some quotes you can write for Valentine's Day.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said:  "Love is the only force capable of
transforming and enemy into a friend."

Helen Keller said:  The best and most beautiful things in the world
cannot be seen or even touched.  They must be felt with the heart."

" Love is friendship, friendship is love, if love fails, friendship should
remain.  For friendship is the foundation of love."

As the water flow around the world it carries the beat of my heart
from my door to your door.

Happy Valentine's Day My Love

Culture Shock

I have moved to a different and completely new environment.
You feel lack of direction, not knowing what's appropriate or
inappropriate.  Being in a new place the first few weeks the feeling of
culture shock sets in.

Culture shock one suffer when they come to live in another country or
place that's different from the place they are original from they suffer
physical and emotional discomfort.

Culture shock can make one experience real pain, such as sadness,
loneliness, aches, pain, allergies, insomnia, changes in temperament,
depression, feeling vulnerable, powerless, anger, resentment, unwillingness
to interact with others.  You try hard to absorb everything in the new
country, but you are unable to do so, longing for family, you just feel
lost.  You are a new arrival you may feel weird, with all the things you
encountered.  The communication difficulties of being understood, feeling
incompetence.  This happens  when a person is trying to  adapt to a new
culture that is very different from their culture of origin.  The transition
is a difficult process it will take time; there can be strong feeling of
dissatisfaction.  After getting familiar with the environment and
wanting to belong, you evaluate the old ways versus the new. You
realize the new culture has good and bad things to offer, you start to
define and establish goals for living.  When you return to your country
things are no longer the same, our customs are not the same as there's.
Everyone has there own reaction to culture shock.

This I have experienced in 2005 and 2007
