Every Tuesday “Two Writing Teachers” hosts a writing challenge – to share a slice from your life.
The day after Labour Day has always signaled the start of a new school year for me. The end of summer, a return to routines, the early morning rush, lesson plans and homework.
Now that i am retired , September still signals the end of summer, but different routines.It still means the start of a new year, new beginnings.
While visiting Steph’s blog yesterday , I was inspired by her post on endings and beginnings. It reminded me of the pattern poem I always did with students – Hello/Goodbye.
Here are mine for the months ahead:
Time to stop procrastinating and wasting time online – spend more time writing and creating
Time to stop being inactive – make more time for exercise
Time to eat less – eat better, especially more fruit and vegetables
Time to stop negative thoughts – reach out to others
Time to stop reading about events – speak out and write about what is wrong
It will be a time to – create more
-write more
-eat well
-move, dance
-laugh more
-be brave
Sounds like you will be busy in the days ahead fulfilling your poem. I need to join you. 🙂
I’ve been procrastinating over the summer and just now accomplishing much. Time to get busy! Thanks Elsie for stopping by.
Love your list. It’s filled with the good things we ALL should be doing!
Thanks Stacey. It was high time I buckled down and made more time for art and writing.
I too love your list – especially the be brave part since I am focusing on that this year. 🙂
I visited Words of Me Project Sunday and she is starting a 100 day project which I am going to do as well. It was where the brave idea came from. Thanks for stopping by Crystal
Your plans sound wonderful!
