I had a horrible, awful, crappy, no good day.
My 4th graders wouldn’t stop talking and gave me a headache.
My second graders wouldn’t stop talking or rolling around on the floor and continued my headache.
My first graders were angels.
My Kinders were Kinders, need I say more.
My honors choir goofed off and made me wish I wasn’t giving up my plan time twice a week.
I went home and had a session with my spiritual director. I complained I cried I meditated and I realized the song I’ve been writing this week was for my own encouragement. I hope it encourages you as well. The lyrics are as follows:
Hope lifts the soul, and it raises the spirit
Opens our eyes and our ears, can you hear it?
Calling on all who are searching for answers
Don’t let go don’t give up hope is enough
Sometimes the dark can bring fear and confusion
Doubt pushes through and may cause disillusion
Open your heart and let grace overtake you
Don’t let go don’t give up
Hope is enough
Give away joy and compassion
Always be generous with grace
Be kindness and love in action
Let go of your worries release your pain hold on to faith
You are a light to the world all around you
Hold it up high let it’s brightness surround you
You are the hope that inspires so many
Don’t give up don’t give in
Keep that beautiful spark from within
Hope is enough!
I had a horrible awful crappy no good day. Some days are like that, no matter where you are.
