What a wonderful time of the year. This is my favorite season to be in a school. I love to see what the students are thankful for and what they wish for. Everyone seems to be more in the giving spirit and the smiles abound.
I believe that Thanksgiving is the beginning of the Season of Blessings. We give thanks for what we have and the relationships we have and then throughout the month, we share those fortunes with others. We give more freely…not just material things, but our time, patience, and love.
We continue with what we need to do in school and the students learn. They learn some important lessons, not from books, but from watching each other and the adults in the school. They see the can food being collected for the Second Harvest Food Bank, they see the coats collected for the Rescue Mission, they see more smiles and enjoy hugs. They observe the interaction of people all around them and learn what it means to give of ones self.
Season of Blessings….may you be blessed this season.
