Footprints in the Sand

 

Footprints in the Sand is my absolute favorite poem! This poem means that God is always with you no matter how hard or bad you think your life is. He will never leave you to handle the world alone. When i see this poem it makes me think of my grandmother. This was her favorite poem too. When she was here she would quote this poem a lot when I would talk to her about certain things. I didn’t really understand this poem until after she passed away. When she passed I felt horrible. I felt like my world was coming to an end. It was so sudden and unexpected. This for me was the lowest point in my life. I have never lost someone that I was so close too, and I just couldn’t stop crying. The night before the funeral I was crying so badly and I started felt an overwhelming feeling of comfort. It was as if someone was hugging me or something. It kind of scared me a little but the feeling quickly went away. When the feeling left I started thinking about Footprints in the Sand, and that is when I discovered the real meaning of this poem. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about her but this poem makes me feel so much better.  Rest in paradise grandma I love you. You may be gone but never forgotten.

It's Moday Again

Well today is Monday. I'm sure you already know that. But here I am sitting in class thinking about how much I hate Mondays! I had such a hard time getting up this morning, and I am having a horrible time finding something to smile about. It's just so hard for me to come back from the weekend and get my week started. So try to make the best out of this dreadful Monday. Btw no school Friday!

Unisex Bathrooms

A school in Oregon recently opened unisex bathrooms. They took six student bathrooms and two staff bathrooms and turned them into unisex bathrooms, outfitting them with locks on the inside and "unisex" signs on the door. This was put in to action for transgender students who could not decide which bathroom to go to. Transgender students admitted to saying that they avoid drinking through the day so they don’t have to go through the anxiety of having to choose a bathroom. Out of the 1600 students in the school there are only about 10 transgender students. This accommodation has made their school day much easier. Whats your opinion on unisex bathrooms at your school?
