Happiness is
Coffee with the perfect amount of milk Sunny bike rides that relax me Pain-free, sweaty runs Listening to music that inspires me Making one of my students smile Cuddling Patrick when he’s a sleepy butt Making and eating tasty pasta Seeing wildflowers on the side of the road Hugs from my students Getting stronger at… Continue reading

Sing
Find what makes your blood sing. Then think those thoughts. Breathe that in. Live that life. Find what makes you stop. What sucks all the air out of you and then fills you up until you’ll nearly pop.
