Cosmic Balances In Myth
The King Arthur myths and legends are a prime example of the heroic journey. His call to adventure is some myths that start when he pulls Excalibur from a stone. It proves to be his call to adventure because he is the only one who can do it, the only one worthy of the sword because he is the son of Uther. He is the rightful king of England and only he can rule. His mentor and supernatural aid comes in the form of Merlin the druid, the Lady of the lake and his sword Excalibur. Merlin is often tied to magic and seen as a wise man in most stories and tellings with great power who educates Arthur sometimes by turning him into animals, in other tellings he is the one who created the sword Excalibur another item that in some sources seems magical or has magical properties, one being that only Arthur and can use the sword. And the Lady of the lake who in some cases also holds onto the sword for Arthur can give it to him so long as he is near some body of water, so long as he is close to a source of water he can summon the sword thanks to her help. Then you have his knights such as Percival, Lancelot, and Gawain to name a few. They are his allies in his journey, each providing some form of help to him and his cause, whether it is Percival and his strength or Gawain with his humanity. They help him along his journey and fight for him and his kingdom. Now during the time in which this story would have been originally told in an oral tradition it was during the Saxon migration from Germania to the British Isles and perhaps during the Viking age in which England was divided and didnt have a single king. This myth of a great warrior king who ruled over all England would have been seen as a rallying call, a way to unite the people against a single threat. But the moral and philosophical purpose of this myth is that all of England can be united under one banner no matter what boundaries exist and when times are at their darkest a ray of light shines through.

What exactly is a limited company?
A limited company is a legal business structure that is formed and registered with Companies House, the Registrar of Companies in the United Kingdom. When a business is formed through Companies House, it legally becomes an individual. As a result, because it is accountable for its own activities, finances, and responsibilities, a limited corporation is a wholly independent individual from its owners.

Art as a Lifestyle.
This week has been one of the hardest and the most rewarding of my teaching life! I’ve had kids screaming and crying, as one would since I teach grades kindergarten through sixth* grade in my classroom every day. However, I’ve also had kids (miraculously!) learning to listen this week, sharing politely with each other, and expressing themselves more through their art in ways that I haven’t seen up to this point. As a teacher, that is what I like to see! I want to find kids who are using their words and their actions in a kind manner. I always challenge them to get out of their box whenever they are attempting artistry in my class. but as an art teacher it especially makes me proud that these kids are making an extra effort to try things that don’t come naturally to them. That takes true courage and I’ve definitely seen that come out in conversations and finished projects. Every day is another moment to learn.

Living with routines but not methodically
Ever since the pandemic started I've been living the same life, like on autopilot. I wake up at 5 AM, work out, shower, then sit down at my desk to write, check my emails, update my blog, or simply read articles and do research. Then I’d head out, run some errands, come home, shower, cook, watch TV, nap, wake up and spend the afternoon reading or worrying about things beyond my control. (Of course, I must mention that spending time talking to my best friends is an amazing way to spend pieces of my days and I’m always looking forward to it.) The thing is, this cycle of activities has been on repeat and I didn't notice. Too distracted on automatic to notice.
