always collapsing over lifes Education."" »Paul. F. Meekin

"I've always believed in Education and in good teaching that is guided by truth. But after a lifetime of educational pursuit, I now ask, what is true Education and who decides on what is good teaching? This search has taken me through the spiritual, the delusional, social, physical, the psychological, the philosophical -- and back again. And I have made the most important educational discovery of my career, the most important discovery of my whole life: It is only through kindness that any true lesson can be taught and that I'm only here to help my students find that kindness. They are all my Education, they are all my good teaching, they are my truth, they are my kindness." »Paul. F. Meekin

"All the perplexities, confusion and distress in Education these days arises, not from defects in the students,teachers or schools, not from want of equipment or technology, but from the downright ignorance of the nature of honor, virtue and kindness. Sound Education... thrives on honesty, on honor, on the sacredness of obligations, on faithful protection of childhood, on unselfish performance of teachers and on accountability and reliability." »Paul. F. Meekin
