There Is Always Room for One More Blessing

Beschreibung

There Is Always Room For One More Blessing builds on the notion that it is too often the case where some people, to their detriment, insist on remembering the things that are worth forgetting while forgetting the things that are worth remembering. This scenario sets up a condition indicating a degree of confusion and the need to embrace a mental blueprint as a traveling companion through the ups and downs of life. This book addresses this reality by providing a varied set of original and inspirational quotes that the author proffers as guidelines for establishing a mental context for daily living. It is written to give the reader a sense of purpose and clarity in deciding how to find that place where consciousness and confidence converge. Each quote engages the reader's sense of introspection and forces him to find meaning in every experience.

Autor

Septimus Barrock had been an adjunct professor at Broward College and other academic institutions for over ten years and was a two-time nominee and finalist for the Adjunct Professor of the Year Award. He taught international relations to post-secondary students and English as a Second Language to foreign professionals who were endeavoring to build their English language proficiency as newly-arrived American residents. He also taught core academic subjects to high school students who had run afoul of the law and in need of guidance to help them refocus their lives. He has earned several college degrees including a BA in Urban Planning from Florida Atlantic University, an MA in Diplomacy from Norwich University and an M. Ed. in TESOL from Grand Canyon University where he is also pursuing a third Master's degree in Foundations of Secondary Education.Mr. Barrock is passionate about helping people discover and utilize their inner strengths as a proven way to face and eventually overcome their challenges. He believes that whether credentialed or not, we are all teachers who have something valuable to add to the lives of our fellowmen. This is the reason why he has taken it as his personal mission to pursue the teaching profession. In his first book, "There is Always Room for one More Blessing", Mr. Barrock provides a mental blueprint for daily living, and although this current book (title to be inserted here) chronicles his interactions with juvenile offenders in a school setting, over a number of years, he still appeals to the good nature in these 'bad' youths to embrace the possibility of hope. He believes that his experience working with prison inmates and young offenders in an alternative school has fortified his resolve to help others climb out of their physical and psychological pits. Septimus continues his journey as an educator; this time teaching English Language Development to high school students in the state of North Dakota.
