Why am I a member of the
Compelled Tribe of bloggers?
In this tribe,
- I am family. I need not earn my position; I am a member.
- I am not alone. I have a group of people committed to helping me reflect and excel as an educator.
- I am a contributing member. I work alongside my fellow tribesmen (and tribeswomen), reading, writing, commenting, and encouraging.
- I find comfort. I find passion. I find courage to continue. I find ideas.
- I am inspired. When I read what others are thinking, doing, saying (etc.), I am challenged and stretched.
- I am allowed to be different. I don't have to write in a certain way, and I don't have to think with a certain mindset.
- I am reminded that I am not alone. I remember what I do and why.
- Likewise, I can encourage, strengthen and inspire others. I can give back to my tribe.
- With my tribe's encouragement, I return to my clasroom, my students and my colleagues revitalized.
- With my tribe's influence, I am pushed to remember my commitment to blogging, and encouraged to give it my best effort.
