Abstract
The author places her tenure submission package into a laundry basket and sets it aloft with helium balloons. Awaiting news, she contemplates curricular encounters and choices of action that have shaped her journey through the academy. She comes to recognize that as educators, we must learn to stop and call ourselves into deep listening and mindful action. What matters is that we attend with hospitality and welcome what and who comes into our presence, as if responding to an unexpected stranger knocking at the door, “who is there?” and open ourselves to the possibilities awaiting us across the threshold.
