Today while I was in Freshman Seminar class, my students had to read a quote and write about it in their journals. The quote said " No one can drive us crazy unless we give them the keys." After I got done reading that quote, I sat back and said Wow! That is so true. The quote is basically saying no one can put you in a bad mood unless you let them do so. I had a very bad weekend this pass week and it wasn't because somone got me mad but, I allowed them to. If you don't let them break you you can't go wrong. I now will live life by this quote because I tend to let people break my spirits and either put me in a good or bad mood. I think this will also be heathier for me because if I become very upset I tend to lay in bed more and become lazy. I am pretty sure life will be a lot easier to handle and put less stress on me. Once I figure out if this helps out I will tell others to do the same.

ReplyDeleteWow, I'm definitely putting that quote on my bulletin board. Not only is it good for students to see, I need to remind MYSELF of that!
