Just another #MeatlessMonday
No recipe today, sorry. Well, maybe sort of. So, I’m sitting there in my first class today, and we’re talking comparatives and superlatives. And I say to the kids, “I’ll never be the fastest, the strongest, the best. I can never be the smartest, the richest, or the most famous. All I can do is work every day to be better than the day I was before, and do my best to be the best I can be at whatever I put my effort into.”
They seemed to get it, I don’t know if they did. But I do know that I got it. It really dawned on me, I’ve said it before, but the weight of the idea really hit me. We can only be the best we can be at something. That is all. I can only be the best teacher I can be, the best runner I can be, the best blogger I can be. Asking for anything more is a surefire way to disappointment and misery.
So in being the best I can be, in honor of all the craziness this week will bring me, more llamas with hats. “He was a traitor and a scoundrel!”
Have fun, keep running, and remember; If Gil can run then so can you.
