Spiritual Health

Best Lent Ever...

Fasting...

Identified a habit...

Turning on the tv as I go to bed...

In its place...

Reading, 

Listening, 

Reflecting

To the words 

Everybody Needs to Forgive Somebody, 

A Purpose Driven Live.

Filling my heart

With the joyful music

And messages 

Of Christian hymns.  

Peacefully 

Falling asleep, 

Grateful for blessings bestowed.

Looking forward, 

Looking ahead, 

Making a plan

For spiritual growth 

With its beginnings in

Fasting...

Best Lent Ever 

So Much Depends

Getting ready to start celebrating National Poetry Month with fourth graders.  Starting with the book Love That Dog.  As I reread the book, I was inspired to compose my own version of The Red Wheelbarrown by William Carlos Williams.

So much depends upon

Kindness

A welcoming 

Smile,

Encouraging 

Words, 

Thoughtful 

Actions, 

A gift of peace,

Love.
