“It may make a difference to all eternity whether we do right  or wrong today.”

James Freeman Clarke.

Reflection: well to be honesty I really do not get this quote…

Veterans day

Veteran's Day is an official United States holiday that honors people who served in the U.S Armed Forces also known as veterans. It is a federal holiday that is observed on November 11. Veteran's Day wasn't really called that, it was called Armistice Day to commemorate the truce between the Allies and Germany in World War 1 on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918. The first Armistice Day in the United States was celebrated on November 11th, 1919. All business was suspended for 2 minutes starting at 11 AM and parades and public gatherings helped commemorate the occasion. Later America began honoring its unknown soldiers on Armistice Day. A tradition that continues today.

Reflection: I Thank all the Veterans because  they are brave and also because they go fight for our country.

Dance/Movement Therapist

Duties and Responsibilities: Based on the empirically supported premise that the body, mind and spirit are interconnected, the American Dance Therapy Association defines dance/movement therapy as the psychotherapeutic use of movement to further the emotional, cognitive, physical and social integration of the individual.

Dance/movement therapy is:

• Focused on movement behavior as it emerges in the therapeutic relationship.  Expressive, communicative, and adaptive behaviors are all considered for group and individual treatment.  Body movement, as the core component of dance, simultaneously provides the means of assessment and the mode of intervention for dance/movement therapy.
• Is practiced in mental health, rehabilitation, medical, educational and forensic settings, and in nursing homes, day care centers, disease prevention, health promotion programs and in private practice.
• Is effective for individuals with developmental, medical, social, physical and psychological impairments.
• Is used with people of all ages, races and ethnic backgrounds in individual, couples, family and group therapy formats.

Salary: Average earnings for dance/movement therapists are generally higher because entry into the profession requires a higher level of education. In 2004, the average earnings of dance/movement therapists generally ranged closer to $40,000 - $50,000 a year, with some earning $60,000 - $80,000 a year or more.

EducationThe ADTA approves programs that meet the requirements stated in the ADTA Standards for Graduate Dance/Movement Therapy Programs. Graduates of approved programs meet all professional requirements for the Registered Dance/Movement Therapist (R-DMT) credential.

Reflection: this would be a cool job to work as because you are expressing yourself in dancing and moving.
