So I am teacher and lately have been struggling a lot with feeling good enough and likeable, Today I was sad. After lunch a student came in and gave me the regular afternoon hug she gives. She asked how I was and I told her quite honestly “I am a bit sad today.” She hugged me harder and went off to do her work. When I sat with her to offer help, she looked at me and said “don’t be sad” and held my hand in hers for several minutes. It was such a simple act that meant a lot, and she did it without even thinking. When I doubt if I am enough, I want to remember these moments of kindness that show me there are people that believe I am. I am grateful to have these people in my life.
