Being old enough to have experienced many changes in my life, I have realized that one thing has remained constant; it's my imagination. Something, I feel, that has faded in my colleagues and friends as the years rolled by. It's a sad thing to lose one's belief in the magic in the world around us, but remember my fellow teachers, it is not too late to instill this sense of imagination in the generations that come before us. You are the leaders of the world...YOU shape the hopeful fruits of our futures.
