Thoughts from a scarecrow

In the movie, The Wizard of Oz, Dorothy is walking along the yellow brick road and comes to a four-way intersection. She stops to figure out which road to take. As she stands perplexed and tries to decide, the scarecrow yells out to her, “You can go this way, or this other way . . . and, of course, this other road is nice, too. But if you don’t know where you are going then any of these roads will take you there.”

I see a lot of our students in the merry old land of Oz, dealing with the thoughts from this scarecrow.
