Being real is hard work. Honesty. Truthfulness about who we are. We live in a divided world that makes it hard to be—well, yourself. If we are not vigilant, it is easy for us to become divided and adopt it as a lifestyle. Social media allows us to have friends, fans, and followers in the thousands and yet no one knows who we truly are.
The summer is a great time for catching up on movies. This past week I went to see the new release of Wonder Woman (2017) and I was inspired in a way I least expected. As educators, we have a lot to learn from her.
I’ve always been a fan of Wonder Woman since I was a child. As much as I loved her ability to save the day back in the 1970s, I have a deeper and more profound respect and admiration for the Wonder Woman of the 21st century, who has taught me more about identity and mission than anyone else.
