Dori and Spongebob as Icons??? "Just keep swimming..." (Tagging along to Arlene's post)

I use that song from Finding Nemo for my personal inspiration. Funny as it may seem, but Dori and Spongebob are real big motivational icons for me. If you think about their characters' persona, they don't let obstacles or negative events or people bother them, and they seem just fine in the end.
I think sometimes we take things to hard or to personal and then that's the end of our sanity. I like to see things thru a child's eye. Their reasoning and answer's to almost everything are so straight forward and simple. We tend to over analyze or over think when sometimes the answers are very easy. In the beginning of this program, I was overwhelmed by the fact that this program seemed very intimidating.
As I complete courses one by one I look back and see that it's not as bad as I thought.

  1. Thank you for sharing this. I'm now inspired to see through a child's eyes as well. It'll make everything much easier to deal with.

  2. I agree. As we do the required work consistently it comes easy. Just neet to test the waters and swim. Blogging was my challenge in this class. But I have not tried livetext yet.

  3. Kathleen: I am so in agreeance with you! It's funny because ever since I first saw Spongebob, which was years ago, I always wished I had his mentally. Nice blog!
