Education is not the filling of a pail, but the<br />
lighting of a fire.<br />
—William Butler Yeats<br />
At Stampin’ <strong>Up</strong>!®, we light the fires of <strong>creativity</strong> and<br />
imagination! Often, those sparks come from education<br />
and learning—there is a difference between the two!<br />
We can sit in a classroom and listen to all sorts of things,<br />
but we don’t truly learn until we listen, understand,<br />
absorb . . . and learning takes place in many places<br />
other than a classroom!<br />
In this issue of Stampin’ Success, <strong>for</strong> the first time<br />
ever, we’re weaving a specific topic into almost every<br />
article. The topic is education, and we chose the<br />
September issue because, of course, it’s fall, and<br />
everyone is heading back to school! So learning is<br />
on many of our minds. This is an exciting time as<br />
we anticipate the growth and progress that often<br />
accompanies education, especially when we open<br />
up our minds and embrace what we’re learning.<br />
I’m certainly passionate about learning. While I didn’t<br />
graduate from college, I did attend several semesters<br />
and feel that higher education is a wonderful blessing<br />
worth working <strong>for</strong>!<br />
Even more importantly, however, is a personal<br />
commitment to learning beyond a <strong>for</strong>mal education.<br />
American educator John Dewey wrote that “education<br />
is not preparation <strong>for</strong> life; education is life itself.” If we<br />
are willing and open, we can learn something new<br />
every day of our lives!<br />
Much of the excitement and passion that we share<br />
<strong>for</strong> stamping is rooted in the fact that so much of<br />
this hobby is about learning—new techniques, new<br />
products, new projects. We learn something new<br />
almost every time we sit down to stamp, don’t we?<br />
Even when we stamp alone, we’re trying new things,<br />
but especially when we stamp with others, the<br />
opportunity to share what we know is stimulating!<br />
Whether we’re heading back to school ourselves—<br />
or know someone who is—this time of year can be<br />
an exciting time of learning <strong>for</strong> all of us! I encourage<br />
you to be aware of learning opportunities all around<br />
you, and embrace those opportunities! Life truly is<br />
an education, and I am so grateful to be <strong>sharing</strong> my<br />
education with you!<br />
