As I observe my children, who are now grown and out ravishing the community, I am actually proud of them all. But I can't help wishing that I could go back into to their past and grasp the many opportunities I missed for their future--opportunities, for example, which would have prepared them better to think, to communicate and to meet the demands of this, their future--the information processing era.
But when I look at my one remaining toddler, I know, in the same sense, that right now I am in her past.
I can do for her, those things that I would like to have done for the others. This now, is the window of opportunity I long for.
What can and should I do to insure for her a bridge of communication as broad as the Golden Gate? That is what this lecture series is about-- learning to recognize the processes, the windows and the things to do.
That's what makes this class exiting, is that there is something we can do to change the future!
