Lunch till 13:15.

Home after that.

Tired and had to force character in class.  Did quite well, if I can be honest.  I knew my thoughts weren’t giving me an adequate assessment of my state, the morning, how confident or excited I was about class.

Student is engaged, experienced, communicative.  Seriously, it’s like the Universe gifted me today.  And, it did.  I know that.

Peace at the desk, looking at the journals around me.  Some much older, like 10+ years, and others newer.

One, a gift from a former student, about 12 years ago if I remember.

Another reminder of time, and what’s behind me can’t be brought to this room.  Only remembered, learned from…. So, I admire the Now.

Where I am.  The PEACE at this desk.

Knowing things, about what people know, what they’re aware of.  Navigate from that, sometimes.  Just something I have to record, here, in this post.  To be opportunistic, no.  But to have spacial awareness, and scene knowledge.

12:46… My gratitude, for this desk and office, this building, company, our BUILT DIFFERENT narrative connecting with me more than I could have seen at any point before today.
