Was talking to some new students at a picnic last night. Had some thoughts.
We came to school to get some things wrong. In a place like this, we have the opportunity to get things wrong without actually hurting anyone. As we get things wrong, we learn to get them right. So, don’t beat yourself up for making mistakes, even if other people do beat you up. Just keep trying. And, maybe even relax a bit and enjoy the ride. Then, maybe, when people really need you, you will truly be there for them, and they will be safe.
When you are then in a position to help others through their mistakes, remember that a kind word and encouragement is what got you through the first grade. The reasoning still applies.
