Grateful

When I'm feeling really low and want to pick myself up something I think about all the things I'm grateful for. Yesterday, on my way home I thought about those things. I also had a headache that keeps coming almost everyday. I don't know why, but after I did my gratitude practice, I felt immensely better. I was able to make myself dinner and prepare my lunch/dinner for the week.

Some of things that made me feel better yesterday was seeing these four students who make me feel loved and always give me a hug. I found one during the first period, the other one I thought I missed, but found later in the day. I also found another during that same time and then right before leaving I saw the last one. I think I'm reminded that I am surrounded by love and support even if I don't always see it/them. I am loved. I am supported. I am cherished. I am love.

Today, I woke up feeling well rested. I had a wonderful breakfast, took the bus to school. I arrived safely, and now I'm going to start working on my lesson plans for the week/tomorrow. ttfn.
