Basically, I'm giving something a try, which for now, has the title "30 day writing challenge" I honestly believe that everyone has a story tell and something valuable to say. Even if today i feel like saying: Sometime I eat popcorn for dinner because it just doesn't make sense to cook for one person.
Whether you agree or not, there is a certain beauty in a statement like that, and a small window into the brain for the person saying it.
Now that school is done, i feel like my brain will turn to mush, which i would like to avoid. Also, i'm going through a bit of separation anxiety with my students. Because let's face it. I have transition issues. I did, however, get to see some of them tonight at a softball game, i literally had NO intention of going to.
I went to see my roommate sing the national anthem, which, ironically, i missed. However, watching those 12 and 13 year old girls get their butts kicked but try so hard anyway was really great to see. It's things like this that remind me how much i love my job, and, how much of my job isn't just teaching them where commas or or how to be an active reader.
Relationships matter. So many things happen/come about when you just talk about life. This is what i'm learning.
I'm also learning, little by little, that who i am is a giant combination of everyone in my life. I'm a little bit of my parents, a little bit of my best friend, a little bit of the family members and a whole lot of God workin' his magic through me.
That is beautiful, and scary. Now, i'm very tired and now even really sure what i'm saying. Also, my legs hurt because i just caught for a random softball game. To bed I go.....I'll leave you with this....
