To continue with Rosa Parks from our educational video on her life yesterday, here are 5 quotes of wisdom from her. Enjoy!

I have learned over the years that when one’s mind is made up, this diminishes fear; knowing what must be done does away with fear.

Rosa Parks

I would like to be remembered as a person who wanted to be free… so other people would be also free.

Rosa Parks

People always say that I didn’t give up my seat because I was tired, but that isn’t true. I was not tired physically… No, the only tired I was, was tired of giving in.

Rosa Parks

Each person must live their life as a model for others.

Rosa Parks

Racism is still with us. But it is up to us to prepare our children for what they have to meet, and, hopefully, we shall overcome.

We all had that one teacher that made a difference. In my case, there were a few. Rita Pierson is one of those teachers that treats her job responsibilities seriously and realizes the importance of her role as an educator. For me, my favorite teacher was Mrs. Feick in the 5th grade. She was so innovative. I think I learned more in her class than most of my elementary education combined. Rest in Peace Mrs. Feick.

Do you have a teacher that made learning fun? Did you have a teacher that held you to a higher standard, knowing you could do more? Did you have a teacher that made you feel like you could take on the world? Watch this Ted Talk. It is worth it.

Until next time…

Dave
