Feeling like you belong is the best feeling in the world. I love that I get to stay in one school and really feel like I belong. I’ve been in my class for two months. It feels like I’ve been there forever. It’s such a perfect fit for me. The kindergarten teacher is awesome and I love so much from her every day. She’s got such compassion for each and everyone of those children.
As I was leaving today for the weekend the children were saying goodbye. The teacher asked them if they wanted to say Anything to me. Almost all of them put up their hands. I was told hope you have a good day, Thank you for helping us today, I love you, lots said have a great day. Good bye said one. I told them my best part of the day was spending time hanging out with each of them.
As I left I smiled at feeling like I belong with them in their class. For so long in school I moved from school to school. That is hard because when you feel like you belong then you have to always leave. That’s the hardest thing for me. For so long in my life I had a hard time fitting and feeling like I belonged anywhere. When I left the only family I knew. I had to leave my siblings whom I loved. I saw them one more time and I have never seen them since.
When I moved from Ireland to Canada I didn’t belong anywhere. I didnt fit. Many times in my life I have felt I didn’t belong. Now I don’t feel like that anymore. I belong to my class and a great school. I belong to my church, I belong to an awesome life group with amazing woman who love Christ. I belong with my Good friends. I no longer feel like I don’t belong. I belong and I feel special to many people whose paths I cross. It’s such a great feeling to belong.
Beauty from Ashes.
