Leaping off the edge

I want to document how I feel about what this course is like for me so far because one day I'll look back on this time I'm sure.  Instead of teetering on the edge of uncertainty I've decided to beat this thing and learn how to do it.  Tonight I listened to Helen's voice message where she mentioned 'audacity' (!?) (dictionary definition:  daring) which is a timely reminder of what I have to be more of quite quickly.  I've no idea what 'Audacity' is but I'll find out...it's a little like living in the middle of the Renaissance with someone's finger on the fast forward button - all these new concepts and possibilities - a whole world of knowledge at our fingertips and the tools with which to connect big time ... which will happen for me too, just as soon as I find the 'link' button ...

  1. Yah up and running. You have taken yourself off the edge (sorry the term audacity nearly took you over it!!) Good idea to document how you feel now- that is a good use of a blog- one of its initial purposes was to act as a diary or personal journal. This is learning- having a gap in knowledge and solving problems ... for now at least.

      You need to copy then paste it on your browser though. I still have to learn how to create hyperlink in the reply section of a blog.
