class time

Maybe it's because I used to be a teacher.  Or because I attended school through two master's degrees, so it's habitual.  I don't know.  But there is something about the start of a new school year that makes me feel like turning a page--literally or figuratively.  Although the world celebrates New Year's Day on Jan. 1st, and the church welcomes the new year with Advent, for me the new year seems to begin right now.  What do I need/want to be learning right now?  Who are my teachers?  What about you?  What "classes" are engaging you these days?  How can we encourage one another and support one another in this constant learning and growing?
