The poem below is Perfect place to begin.... Your brain is a work of art, filled with a magic of encyclopedic proportions.
So where do we go from here. We, at Education Navigator, know how to unlock your magic to reveal the art and passion you feel within. You've come to the right people.
Take an ordinary kid, Daniel Tammet for example. Some say he's one in a million. But then, so are you. On this planet, in it's entire history, there's never been ANYONE, like you. Nor in it's vast future, will there be anyone like you... ever again. You and Daniel have so much in common. He's begun to unlock and capture his passion. And you're here, right now. You too... have begun. Watch his story unfold, then together we will write your very own and completely unique story. Behold your future about to unfold..
Oh that poem... (or just skip to the video)
Wider Than The Sky Emily Dickinson (1830-1886)
THE BRAIN is wider than the sky,
For, put them side by side,
The one the other will include
With ease, and you beside.
The brain is deeper than the sea,
For, hold them, blue to blue,
The one the other will absorb,
As sponges, buckets do.
The brain is just the weight of God,
For, lift them, pound for pound,
And they will differ, if they do,
As syllable from sound.
Do remember as you watch this video, the gifts in you, about to be discovered!
