Even though it’s only pretend
You will feel my support
Though unrequired in the end
You did it all by yourself
But needed comfort to begin
You learned to trust yourself
And you can do anything

Inspired by the story of Christopher Wren adding two unnecessary columns to a building to satisfy the owner’s desire. Everyone was happy. Also along with the work I’ve been teaching my students that they can improve themselves little by little.

Gratitude Journal

I am so happy and grateful that I can catch up on some video watching whilst doing the ironing. Too many shirts today.
