So many of my teacher friends begin a new school year this week. This is especially for you!
When your mind is filled with new ideas and brimming with hope,
May you let kindness take root.
When the faces of new students surround you,
May you let kindness take root.
When rules and regulation undermine your professional expertise,
May you let kindness take root.
On the really amazing days when your spirit soars,
May you let kindness take root.
On the really discouraging days when doubt and despair shadow your every move,
May you let kindness take root.
On the days fueled by political heat,
May you let kindness take root.
And may others witness you kindness
And from the overflow of your deeply rooted beliefs,
May others be empowered to let kindness take root.
When your mind is filled with new ideas and brimming with hope,
May you let kindness take root.
When the faces of new students surround you,
May you let kindness take root.
When rules and regulation undermine your professional expertise,
May you let kindness take root.
On the really amazing days when your spirit soars,
May you let kindness take root.
On the really discouraging days when doubt and despair shadow your every move,
May you let kindness take root.
On the days fueled by political heat,
May you let kindness take root.
And may others witness you kindness
And from the overflow of your deeply rooted beliefs,
May others be empowered to let kindness take root.
