Only Human

 I say things I regret.
I do things I am not proud of.
I hurt people's feelings.
I am human.

I use kind words effortlessly and often.
I do things that I am proud of.
I lift people up.
I am human.

I have days that take the wind out of my sails.
I worry too much about things that will {probably} never happen.
I can be a real jerk sometimes.
I am human.

I have days when I feel like I can accomplish anything.
I catch myself when I worry and quickly turn it around.
I can be a real sweetheart sometimes.
I am human.

I stumble and I fall.
I pick myself up and dust myself off.
Over and over again.
Day after day.
I am human.

This is gorgeous Deb. I need this in my classroom as I start teacher training next year. Both as a reminder for me and a reminder about the children. They are human too!

Amen sister! Xx

Oh man, I love this! I can tell you one thing ~ you are a sweetheart way more often than not (and, frankly, I've never experienced the not). If I wrote a post like this one, it would probably start out, "I will probably never find time to respond to your emails even though there is nothing I would rather do!". XOXOXO, my friend!!!
