This week,  each day I am doing something fun and relaxing with my family to help me with peace.  Today we played games and laughed.  When you are laughing, and having fun, it takes your mind off any problems in this world.

 This is what I am doing this week for inner peace-

For 5 minutes-This is what I am doing for inner peace this week- Keeping a Gratitude Journal and listening to music

Write down at least one thing you are grateful for.  Pray and thank God for this in silence. Listen to one song while just resting. Think about the words and what they mean to you.

I’m so proud of all of my students who are making a positive difference in our world, and I wanted to recognize a new week every week. This week I would like to recognize Greg Funderburg.  Greg has recently become a children’s author of the book Jeremiah’s New Beginning!  This has been a dream of his for a long time, and he worked so hard to make it happen, and we are so proud!  Since July 2013, Greg has been WTVC News Channel 9 morning/noon anchor in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Light of Life- Sharing peace with poetry and photography

 Today, I was working on my inner peace by relaxing outside.  I took some photos of the beauty outside, and now I’m writing a poem about something beautiful outside-the sun!

Light of Life

Bold, beautiful, and bright

Shining, sharing, light

Flowers reach forth for you and bloom!

Birds singing their glorious tune.

Passing Peace to you!

The Secret to Peace
