Spirit of the Wolf

Spirit of the Wolf was lettered by my grand-daughter at her Waldorf school

Spirit of the Wolf

You who walks in the wild lands
You who stalks in the silent shadows
You who runs and leaps between the moss covered trees
Lend me your primal strength
And the wisdom of your eyes.

Teach me to relentlessly track my desires
And to stand in defense of those I love.
Show me the hidden paths in the moonlight’
Fierce Spirit! Walk with me in my solitude.
Howl with me in my joy!

Guard me as I move toward you.

“All the World’s a Stage!”

Are you part of the plot?
or
Are you part of the audience?

It’s taken me awhile to focus on what the Waldorf School wants for its students.
It doesn’t allow passive audiences.
Instead, fosters initiative.
Wants to develop collaboration
Respect and care for each other.

Yes, above shows how to use an iPad camera and filters,
but also how to watch each other, take turns and see and listen to each other.

I asked the 5 year old what days her 3 year old brother would be joining her at school.
She will attend 5 mornings; he, 2 mornings.
She answered, “maybe on soup day”.
On soup day, the children bring a fresh vegetable, and they cook a soup.The concoctions get mixed reviews.
We call this day “Friday”.
What is more important, to name and spell Friday or survive by making soup?
What are these Waldorf people teaching my grand children?
