In life, it’s not about waiting
for the storm to pass over.
It’s about dancing in the rain!
I feel like doing
a little “preaching” today! You
don’t have to read this if you don’t want to.
The quote above
is one to carry in your hearts this coming school year. There will be things that happen that
will make you sad and set you back – parent complaints, disagreements with
colleagues, administrator’s expectations.
You’ve got to shut your door and sing away your troubles! Remember, it’s the children! Put them and their happiness first and
other things will fall in place.
One of my models
is Dr. Fran Welch who is the Dean of the School of Education, Health, and Human
Performance at the College of Charleston.
I call her the “Queen of Deans” because she’s one of the finest
administrators I’ve ever known.
Fran once told me, “I never hold a grudge. I just move on.”
So, when it
storms this year, dance in the rain and just move on!
