Sunday Reflections

Well, it is Sunday. The new school year for me starts on Thursday. So, I am pretty calm heading into the new year.

After over twenty years in the profession, the school year doesn’t stress me out as much as it used.

I believe it is part experience and part choice.

I am coming to believe that anxiety for me has been a choice.

I hooked into a mindset that if I wasn’t stressed and worried, then I wasn’t committed enough or that I didn’t care enough.

This is not healthy at all.

Instead, I am going to take one day at a time. One decision at a time. One activity at a time, move through my days with grace, compassion, confidence, and discernment.

Realizing that each day I show up to serve and to help outers. Day by Day drip by drip.
