It has taken 3 months of winter blahs to come back but finally, the time has changed, the weather is trying to change and I have lightened my load by figuring out what I need to own and what doesn't belong to me I disown. So many times I get caught up on my soapbox and forget to leave it behind when I step down. Some things just are what they are and life is too short to choose minor battles. Ahhhhh, that feels better. And so, in these "troubled economic times" the uncertainty game could be played but I think I choose not to participate. My purpose is clear, the plans for me have been set in motion and I will choose that path. As we journey towards the end of the school year, I want to finish well and so be able to restart on a lighter note & with the wind of positive changes blowing. My new favorite middle school book? Peak by Roland Smith. A story of places & things foreign to the everyday & of selfless sacrifice and comtemplation of what is important in this mortal life. So refreshing. Thank you Mr. Smith. End of coffee-break (actually India Chai, yum. Did you see Slumdog Millionaire? Awesome.).......
