  • An elementary school often has poignant sayings on its marquis -- today's (perhaps this week's) is:  Learning is a weightless treasure you can always carry.  (Chinese Proverb)

  • There is lots of truth there. I'm an advocate of lifelong learning!

    • There's lots of lifetime learning, both formal and experiential -- I just thought this was particularly poignant!

  • I'll pass that on to Brianne! After she graduates in Dec. with her BA in the Business School at UMHB, she'll continue with online studies. Her dream is to get a Masters in Urban Design at ASU. ( 8

    • Oh, wow -- graduation already?!!! That's an interesting combination of Business and Urban Design!

  • How true! Education in so many ways keeps giving its riches to the person. I hope I never stop learning.

    • We learn in so many ways that truly we can carry the act of learning wherever we go -- I thought this was a wonderful quote for a school marquis!

  • Good one, Janet :)

  • I love to learn ~ would love to learn how to create a post easier! Janet, I am finding it nearly impossible to edit a post. IN the "creation" box, no matter what I do, the words appear BESIDE a different picture instead of below the picture I just inserted. I have to really concentrate to get a post done. When I preview it, the words are below the picture where I want it, but in the box where we actually create the post, I cannot even tell where I am working! Bah!

    • There are several boxes where you can create a post -- you might try using a different box. Also, it might help to hit enter after each photo before you write more text -- though you might then have to go back and delete the extra spaces that would create. I've not had that problem, so I'm afraid I can't help very much.

  • That's a good one!!

  • I did lousy in school. lol I did OK in junior college, but that was it. lol

  • So true!
    As a teacher, I love how eager kids are to learn! Their discovery and creativity are always a joy to be a part of! :-)
    HUGS!!! :-)

    • For kids, everything is new and something to be learned -- we can carry that weightless treasure with us all our lives :-) !

  • A really good one. Thanks for sharing.
