Overwhelmed By My Own Bad Focus
My goals have not been met,
and yet they are truly so much
further along than they were
twelve days ago.
I am forcing myself
to concentrate on what I
have accomplished,
rather than what I have not.
It is crazy
that what I have taught
children for twenty years-
to focus on the good,
the positives, the things
you have done right,
have fallen on my
own deaf ears.
Overwhelmed by the
number of goals I have
set for myself, I keep
running to TV land
which has given me
zero percent satisfaction.
I can understand children
who are addicted to IPADS
and TV sets better now.
