Journal: 11/19/05

I had another wonderful day of teaching yesterday. The students were alert, polite, attentive, and energetic. In each of my classes, every student contributed something to the success of the class, which is a goal I would like to consistently aim for.

It was a beautiful mid-autumn day. The trees are almost totally stripped of their leaves, revealing the regal beauty of their bare limbs. A gray sky and a brisk, chilly wind added to the appropriate atmosphere for November. I took a walk in the park around 4:30, just as dusk was beginning to settle in. I was astonished by the solemn beauty of the place. The pond had a silent, silvery surface and wore the golden reflections of some lights from the street beyond.
