hoop


a college degree is a hoop, i tell my students. that piece of paper that says you’ve accomplished what they asked you to do. is that a good way to look at learning? no. but it isn’t a bad way to look at life…accomplish what you’ve been asked to do:

live.
love.
help.
sing.
give thanks.

  1. Hoop. Noose?

    How much are the hoops we jump through a noose verses an arch for a new beginning?

    What's the difference?

  2. is it possible to jump through a noose, or is death just the last hoop in life...
