Having just written report cards I spent the last week or two reflecting on the work my students have done over the past few months. One common theme kept running through my mind as I realised just how far many of my students have come and that is that there are no hopeless cases. Of course, I knew that, but sometimes we all need a reminder of things we've already learned in life. Captain Kirk, in one of his many great moments, once said, "I don't believe in a no win scenario." Sometimes, we may have to alter our definition of winning, but there is always a chance to pull yourself from the wreckage. Sometimes, that mountain you've been climbing is just a grain of sand, but then again, maybe it isn't. So hang in there and keep working towards a positive goal. Congratulations, Egyptians.
