people all around me are giving up
(for lent)
and i can't even accomplish
my february ninth to-do list
i'm not even sure why i wrote
recipe at the bottom
(and starred it)....
i'm afraid the stacks on my desks at school
and the dust bunnies at home
have joined forces and
are threatening a bloody coup....
today is valentine's day
so i'll have a classroom-full of
giddy, broken-hearted, sugared teenagers
and i kind of dread it, really....
i'm just feeling under
or i was feeling under until i watched this sixty-one-second video....
what do you think?
Quick video and BAM it hits you right in the face. I have NOTHING to complain about....but I still do. Thanks for the hit I needed it today :)
ReplyDeleteMuch Love,

How true this is, Kendal! Thank you for sharing this video...
ReplyDeleteWow, Kendal. Think I'll show this to my students.
ReplyDeleteI did have to laugh, though, at the "bloody coup" by the "stacks on the desk at school and the dust bunnies at home." And I nodded at the sugared, heartbroken, and giggly teens...
Then, after nodding and chuckling, you made me get my head straight. Thanks, friend.
what a video. thank you for a straight shot of perspective.
ReplyDeleteps i'm so glad to know i'm not the only one who can't make heads or tails of my to-do lists. (my biggest problem is my penchant for abbreviating. 'ind' for example. indecent? indianapolis? indigenous? 'tis a mystery to me.)
Thank you for the great reminder - we are blessed, oh so very blessed. I need to practice my *gratitude attitude* more - and learn the secret of contentment.
ReplyDeleteGOD BLESS!
