#bethelight – Day 221

Today I put off things I was hoping to do for things other people needed me to do...

I Believe

A few weeks ago I was helping a student pick a song for an audition for an upcoming musical at school.  As I glanced through the many musical theatre anthologies, my eye fell on the song "I Believe" from The Book of Mormon, the Musical.   So many of my friends love this musical.  To be… Continue reading I Believe

Theatre- My Safe Place

With the close of the school year I have been thinking more and more about some of the kids I have been around all day and how I have seen them grow and change throughout the year.  Some of them I will not see again.  They were here as exchange students and have returned to… Continue reading Theatre- My Safe Place

#bethelight – Day 219 and 220

Yesterday's kindnesses were really a win/win.  I went and enjoyed a dinner and a movie with a good friend.  It's been awhile since we have had the opportunity to do something together.  It was a win for both of us.  I think we both needed to "friend" time - some time to just be... Today… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 219 and 220

#bethelight – Day 217

Today was the last day of school.  I decided to give my overworked and under-thanked friends a little "bling" for making it through the year!  Thanks Joanna for teaching me how to make these.  Clearly they put smiles on the faces of my friends at school.  Hope you all have a great summer!

Not My Responsibility

I've been thinking about people who struggle to find happiness lately.  I have my days when life feels crappy and I have my days when life is alright.The more I seek pure happiness the more I understand that those seeking happiness take personal responsibility for their words, their behavior, their actions, their mistakes, their ideas… Continue reading Not My Responsibility

#bethelight – Day 215 and 216

Yesterday was the last day of the World Theatre class and today is the last day for the production class.  I decided to give them treats.  I got some foods from the countries that we studied for the World Theatre class.  It was silly and fun.  I made cinnamon rolls for the production class.  Sometimes… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 215 and 216
