Being Grateful


I have so much to be grateful for. A wonderful family. A job I love and that never stops being full of the good kind of challenges that inspire me to do better. A principal who supports and believes in what I do with children. Students who are willing to commit to excellence. A wonderful house. Dogs who make me smile every day. Relatively good health. Friends. Talents.

So often we take everything for granted. I just wanted to stop for a moment today to say how grateful I am for all of the blessings of my life. I need to remember every day to stop and take time to smell the flowers...appreciate everything beautiful....and breathe it in. That is what joy is about.
