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 />
