But maybe it will turn out better than you imagined.

Eyes on the Mission
Keep going. A better world is built by the people who keep trying with open hearts and minds despite it all.
Open to Joy
Sending you peace and courage needed to be fully where your feet are planted. Feel it all, even when it hurts because this is how we keep our hearts open to JOY.
Bird by Bird
Every mosquito move as I call it in Legacy of Learning will add up. Your 100% won’t be the same every day. But that doesn’t meant you didn’t give it your all today. What matters most is that we keep trying.
Vulnerability is Magic
If nothing else this week, if you listened, you did the work. Don’t underestimate the power of good listening.
The Space Between
Some of us needed space over the break and didn’t get it. Perhaps you experienced too much togetherness or politically charged dinner conversations. When we return from the break, let’s recognize that not everyone got the break they needed. Maybe give them a little space, so they can gently reenter the school routine.
Good on Purpose
As Elizabeth Gilbert says, “The universe buries strange jewels deep within us all, and then stands back to see if we can find them.”
Hustling to Exist
But I would love for us to find our way back together. Lovingly bringing ourselves closer to joy, enjoyment, and play. And I don’t exactly know how but as Peter Block recently said in so many words, “When we are unsure, the answer is almost always community.”

Conversations. Partnerships. Togetherness.
Who We’re Meant to Be
And when the work feels like it’s more than we can bear, too much for us to handle, perhaps we have overcomplicated things, and we need to get back to who we (collectively) were meant to be. Back to what we value. Together.
