Potential

A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
Our chief want in life, is, somebody who shall make us do what we can. -Ralph Waldo Emerson, writer and philosopher (1803-1882)

We can do this as colleagues and educators at Esperanza. 

Timid Adventurers Won't Get It Done

When a resolute young fellow steps up to the great bully, the world, and takes him boldly by the beard, he is often surprised to find it comes off in his hand, and that it was only tied on to scare away the timid adventurers.-- Ralph Waldo Emerson Philosopher, Poet, Author, Essayist

People who are not timid adventurers are needed to found Esperanza and make it into the school we want it to be. 

Blaze A New Trail

"If you can see your path laid out in front of you step by step, you know it's not your path. Your own path you make with every step you take. That's why it's your path.”   Joseph Campbell

I also like the quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson: 

“Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail”

This picture and all of these two quotes are a reminder that we want Esperanza to blaze a new trail.
