My carousel seems to have been going on warp speed with me hanging frantically on as life blurs by. A lot of things happening in my life right now are not within my control. I really have to force myself to live in the moment and refocus - refocus on what really is important.
I'll leave you with my favourite quote that's been on my bulletin board behind my desk in my classroom ever since I started teaching. Hope you enjoy it.
To Laugh often and much,
To win the respect of intelligent people,
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends,
To appreciate beauty,
To find the best in others,
To leave the world a bit better,
Whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition,
To know even one life has breathed because you have lived,
This is to have SUCCEEDED
May a little grace touch your day.

Yes! I have seen the Twilight trailers and I was not disappointed in Edward. I had a hard time picturing him. He was somewhere between John Mayer and Zac Efron in my mind (both very handsome but not 100% Edward) so I was relieved to have seen the one portraying him in the movie..very cute..very sexy in a vampire kinda way!
