Today I want to...

Almost every night, I write. I write for myself...I write for others. I write to still my mind, calm my heart. I write to remind myself that I have words worth speaking, hearing, reading.

As a teacher, I want my students to recognize that they have much to offer. Their words matter, their actions speak volumes, they are significant.

Life can, at times, seem tedious, like a vacuum where we don't make an impact, but that is where we are wrong. Each of our movements change the breeze, which impacts others.

We are but one ripple in the pool of the world. These ripples can join together forming a wave, which can alter paths.

We have value. We make impacts. With every breath, movement, sigh, tear. With each action we take, no matter how big or small, can change the world. We must embrace our own power, be someone worth knowing.
