About Becky Dingle
I was born a Tarheel but ended up a Sandlapper. My grandparents
were cotton farmers in Laurens, South Carolina and it was in my
grandmother’s house that my love of storytelling began beside an old
Franklin stove. When I graduated from Laurens High School, I attended
Erskine College (Due West of what?) and would later get my Masters
Degree in Education/Social Studies from Charleston Southern. I am
presently an adjunct professor/clinical supervisor at CSU and have also
taught at the College of Charleston.
For 28 years I taught Social Studies through storytelling. My philosophy
matched Rudyard Kipling’s quote: “If history were taught in the form of
stories, it would never be forgotten.” Today I still spread this message
through workshops and presentations throughout the state. The secret
of success in teaching social studies is always in the story.
I want to keep learning and being surprised by life…it is the greatest
teacher. Like Kermit said, “When you’re green you grow, when you’re
ripe you rot.”
Love you Becky…lots and lots of prayers being lifted for you…
I hope you are going to have Wi-Fi so you can keep telling your stories and sharing your pictures. I pray this new place is comfortable for you. It looks very nice! May God continue to bless you.
Love & prayers for you, Becky. Sometimes the best gift we can give ourselves is to take a step in a new direction. Thinking of you.
I was worried yesterday when I did not see your posting. May God keep you in his hands. Please let us know if you can have visitors and where you are located.
Sweet Friend, you look very nice there as the entrance to your new digs. I am so glad you will have some of your beautiful flowers to keep you happy. I pray that the doctors, nurses, and caregivers are ready for you. They do not know what a blessing is in store for them. I have a feeling you have an assignment to fulfill. There may be some lost soul there who needs rescuing. That’s your assignment, should you choose to accept it. Be a blessing my dear friend, and return to your friends and family. I love you more than hot buttered biscuits!
Dear Becky….never forget that God loves you and will continue to use you and guide you as you walk forward with Him holding your hand. SO thankful you have this lovely place to live for now. We know you will receive lots of TLC there from the staff and from each one who visits you too. Very thankful some of your flower friends move with you as well. You are blessed and we who know you are blessed abundantly too! May you embrace this new day with hope in your heart. Love always, Lynn
