The next thought is what does this video have to do with leaders for tomorrow. Well, I'm always in search of a good analogy, example, non-example; whatever, it may be to draw a connection and this video provides just that opportunity. As educators we grow people. People of all shapes, sizes, densities, and colors will not only different outward appearances, but some much potential energy that's it hard to even comprehend the possibilities. Now those possibilities could turn into diamonds or could turn into a drain on society with educators carrying much of the materials needed to grow people.
Growing people on the other hand is a bit different than crops and that true challenge comes from knowing just the right amount of independence or dependence a child needs in order to continually be challenged. The guys in this video have it figured out though. As in growing anything, it takes humor, knowledge of the topic and a willingness to take a chance a be a bit different.
I hope the best for these gentlemen and their future. This might just be the nudge they need to do even greater deeds for a larger world.
