Teaching and learning.

All the same loop.

A good teacher learns something every time they “teach”.

A Place of Learning is quite different to most schools, even colleges.

The optional sea and the essential tree.

Want some things, can’t do without others.

Salmon or liver, cheese or tofu.

A grey sky with bright blue breaks.

A fast glimpse, smiling in sheer acceptance of the thing beyond the next thing.

Oh, such wind, hot droplets of hidden vision.
