Footprints of Kindness

It is always in your
power to be kind.
No matter who tries
to disarm you,
Aim into their heart
with kindness and
leave footprints of it
wherever you go. 🫶🏻

Lighthouse

May your story be
a lighthouse for others
who are struggling
through the darkness,
And may their hope be
the light of your story
that keeps them pushing
forward,
until one day their story
becomes a lighthouse too.

I haven’t done much work outdoors this summer due to cardiac surgery but managed to spend a couple hours outside today getting some work done, including this little fairy garden. I found a box of fairy items from my kids’ childhood collection & nostalgia took over. #StarfishClub

Never let the ugly in others kill the beauty in you. Only let people into your life who see your beauty from the inside out and genuinely want to be around you. 🫶🏻 #StarfishClub

Take more pictures of your life. Share more kindness. Take deeper breaths. Love more fully. Vocalize your feelings. Don’t hold grudges. Never grow old inside. Life is short. Make each day something special. #StarfishClub

Be kind & build your life around it. This is the key to the greatest kind of personal success. The energy around you (if positive), will attract more kindness, more positivity, more love, more abundance, & ultimately more happiness to your life. Kindness is the most underrated agent of human change.

Even if all you do today is hold yourself together, that’s enough if it’s all you can do. Sometimes holding yourself together is the strongest thing you can do. #MentalHealth #StarfishClub

Build your life around love. Make it the foundation of your existence. Love for yourself. Love for others. Love for those you may never meet. May love survive all the changes in our world and be the rock that guides us forward. 🫶🏻 #StarfishClub #mentalhealth

For teachers who would like to do a #MentalHealth lesson with this poem, this is the message that goes with it: Kindness is an invisible thread that connects people as it travels. Students can write & illustrate it, & make a connection to a time they shared kindness or experienced the ripple effect.

If they care, they will make time for you. No one is too busy to send a ten second text or make a five minute phone call to check in. If you don’t get the bare minimum, you are settling. Don’t do that. Know your worth. #StarfishClub #mentalhealth

Monday is #NationalSuperheroDay - how is your district celebrating? I’ll be giving one of these comics superhero candy bars to every adult in the building with a supportive message. And I’ll be having my students reflect on their personal heroes…

Today I would like to honour & pay tribute to my beloved late cousin Peter Zezel (April 22, 1965 - May 26, 2009). Peter played in the #NHL for 15 seasons, from 1984-1999. Peter would have been 60 yrs old today. He was a great person who was my childhood hero. Peter had a ♥️ of gold & he was loved.

Some days you may take big steps. Some days you may take small steps. Some days you may take no steps at all. You may even go backwards a little, but that’s ok. You will get back on track. Be patient with yourself and know that better days are on the way.

A happy life is directly tied to a positive mindset. You may have struggles and challenges, and your life may not be perfect (whose is?) but you can still choose to have a positive outlook. That is huge. Every day I wake up and say thank you. It’s a simple habit that keeps me positive. #mentalhealth
