Good Morning

I am currently seated at a school desk in Fairhope, Alabama in the United States of America. It is still early morning but the effect of my 6 am coffee is wearing off. The gentle lull of the rain outside is not assisting in my efforts to stave off sleep. It is cold in my classroom, and the air conditioners are revving in preparation for the start of a warm Alabama spring. It is just a quiet Monday morning in a quiet little town in a quiet part of the world, and for the moment I am content. Time stands still.

But what is the rest of the world doing right now? Is it hardly as quiet and sleepy as I am. What is being seen? What is being learned? What is the weather like? What is someone on the other side of the world planning to do with their day? Well, lets get that answered shall we? 

I am only one, of what I hope will soon be, many authors of this blog. It fell to me to introduce it however, so here goes: We are all students out in the world doing our best to gain knowledge. Part of this knowledge we seek is about each other. Our own little corners of the world are too small to contain our minds, so we expand. We choose to learn about each other from the words of our peers. My generation is lucky; the world is at our fingertips in a society of ever expanding technology and lines of communication. Let us put it to good use. Let us learn.
