Illumination comes relatively easy in our powered world...but 'turning on the light bulb' for knowledge, revelation, insight, and wisdom is an entirely different story!

There are very few human beings who receive the truth, complete and staggering, by instant illumination. Most of them acquire it fragment by fragment, on a small scale, by successive developments, cellularly, like a laborious mosaic.
~ Anais Nin

No wonder learning is tough and time-consuming! Now, how do we convince "the powers that be" that it can't be reduced to standardized test scores and school grades? Looks like that illumination will be a slow process, as well! Naples, FL
