Today was Beatty’s birthday and she talked about the importance for all of us to reflect on where we’ve been, where we are in life currently and most importantly, where we want to go and what plans we have to reach our new goals and destination. This is an exercise that we all need to engage in from time to time.

She also discussed the importance of trying to work out differences with the significant people in our lives and not resist getting professional help when necessary. However, she stressed that under no circumstances should anyone remain in toxic, destructive, or self destructive relationships with anyone…family included.

What is the role of schools and colleges in terms of educating students about the realities of life…the good, the bad and the ugly? As educators we have a responsibility to prepare our students to navigate through muddy waters. This can only happen if we encourage responsible debate, discussion and distention about a variety of issues that effect all of us including: religion, gender, sex, relationships and racism. Let’s keep our students safe from violence. Everything else should be up for debate!

How honest are we with ourselves and with others? How important to you is truth and honesty? How do we learn to trust others if they betray us? Does it concern you that Dr. Ben Carson, Carly Fiorina and others are blatantly lying to us about parts of their history? Or do we care that Bernie Sanders doesn’t kiss babies? Beatty asks you to consider these important questions, which invariably affect all of our relationships.
