Today we learned that transportation can be more than just getting from here to there.
It can be moving from a "regular" day to a "funny hair" day.
It can be from moving your inner joy into others.
"Joy?" you may ask. "What joy is there in my life? You don't know what I'm going through."
To this I say there is hope. And with hope there is joy. Transport yourself into the world of Carly Fleischmann and see for yourself. This "Autism Angel" was unable to speak a word or connect to the world around her – until she turned eleven...
Quote of the day: "I think the only thing I can say is don't give up. Your inner voice will find its way out. Mine did."
— Carly Fleischmann
Lastly, with Miss Paula's help, today we transported ourselves into "a place of musical joy" – the world of drum circles. What's a drum circle? It's "a group of people working together, expressing their unique voice in a group song, united by a common pulse."- from the book and CD: Art & Heart of Drum Circles - by musical therapist Christine Stevens.

Like Carly Fleischmann, I hope I may have a voice that can help my friends. — Mr. Pat
