Moment of divinity

This one boy quietly participated in my workshop by coloring his handout without ever looking up. While the rest of the kids were climbing about the tops of classroom furniture in rowdiness, he sat in the corner with his head down, counting the seconds till when he would be let out.

Why grades are full of shit

I remember in middle school, we had to produce a famous dead scientist poster project. I was so excited about executing my designs on a poster that I ended up getting a B on the project with a handwritten note from my teacher that said, “Awesome poster! Not enough research.” Would you give a kid a B for not being creative enough? Messed up.

Disorderly

Going through my calendar by month from the past year and realizing most of my positive activities and steps forward in life occur in the spring/summer. I wonder if I suffer from SAD! Real talk. Blessed to have discovered this about myself. Onward.

Ego

Ego is “if you don’t like my shit, you don’t like me” and if you let it take over, ego is hate. Who cares if people don’t like your shit. If you want people to like you, be kind. That’s all. Personal renaissance going on over here. Lesson learning is such a bitch sometimes.

Glaucoma

Today, my optometrist enthusiastically asked me to be her future business partner in running a coffee shop. OKAY. In other news, it looks like I don’t have glaucoma. Yay.

Toss 'n' drop

What do you do when you feel like everything in your life is up in the air right now? Juggling is hard! I think I may have tossed too many things into the air at once. If I don’t catch ‘em all when they come back down, I just hope I catch the best ones.
