Awe and Reverence

I'm in Washington, DC for the summer AASA Governing Board meeting. Each year I find it an interesting trip and get taken aback by the history that surrounds me. I was again in awed reverence as I walked in front of the Capitol this morning. The early morning sun on the monuments is an inspiring site. Perhaps our elected officials will take some time to soak in the reverence around them and then get down to doing the people's business. We need solutions, not the talking points and rhetoric that we get in the news each day.
