hmmmm school - not the happiest days of my life- mostly spent trying to keep out of the way of some of the other not so nice kids.
The teachers/school seemed only to worry about winning sports events!!!!
I would love to go back and say this to my old school-
Girls are not all going to be office workers
Boys are not all going to be mechanics or builders
I would love to have known how many fantastic opportunities are out there, how many paths I could have taken if only I had been shown... to have been able to learn about geology, palaeontology, nature, horticulture, conservation, forestry, planets, the sun, the universe!
I love the job I have now, but when I see people easing fossils out of rocks or working out how the world has been shaped over the years..........ahhh well.....
Then I remember - to be very grateful for what I have, and learn more about the things I love. It is never to late.
