Quotes are the simple, but powerful sentences that we see in our everyday life. Marianne Williamson's quote called " Our Deepest Fear" is a good example of a powerful text that we can connect to. Teenagers must stop thinking they're not good enough. When they hide their strengths, it doesn't help others to be proud of themselves. We live in a generation where we are influenced by the people around us. If we stop worrying about what others think, people around us will do the same. Marianne explained it well in her quote, " And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same". " We are all meant to shine, as children do". This sentence is the one that marked me the most. It tells teenagers to stop worrying about others opinions and be proud of what we do. Children are always happy to show what they accomplish, and we must do the same. While reading this sentence, I imagine a kid with a big smile, showing off something he did, and just being proud of it. I can connect to this sentence the same way most teenagers do. We are afraid to show our good sides because of what others might think. That's why this quote is so powerful to me, every sentence of the text explain what we can live through every day in our growing-up stage. This quote by Marianne Williamson makes us understand that it's better to be like a kid who's proud to be who they are, then hide what makes us a good person and our strengths.
This year our class will be working a lot with iPads. Each term students will post some of their written work - reflections, short stories, poems, critiques! We hope that you will follow-us this year!
