Never Ever Dull
With every conversation, I always seem to end with "Never a dull moment"....our lives are rich, complex, and beautiful stories. Join me in laughing about everyday things and appreciating life-bumpy roads and all.
They gather criss-cross applesauce on our worn-out classroom carpet. Routines are in place as I pull out my book. I share about Moses listening to God and being given the commandments on stone tablets. My environment-loving child bursts out with “Praise the Lord! It wasn’t plastic!” Our class erupts in laughter and smiles, because we know this child. Saving the world by recycling is what’s most important to her. That’s the lens through which she sees everything. Each day, you’d find a kid teetering over a trash can with an item, trying to decide if it should be recycled or not. Lights were turned off as much as possible, little paper was used, and far less was tossed in the trash cans. We all became conscious of how we can save the Earth because of this one student. Fresh perspectives change our views by pivoting us to see a situation through a different lens. What life circumstance may need an adjustment in how you are viewing it? Are you willing to listen to it and follow through with action?
