Encouraging Words!

Be Strong!

     So this is something that happened to me today! I haven't had the greatest week but today I woke up for school actually feeling refreshed and ready for the day. I went to the store before hand and got needed school supplies, plus cookies! The school day went by good, I finished my art project and creative writing project which I was proud of! I knew all the answers for the test I took and it was a nice day so I decided to walk home. My legs started to burn and I have ankle problems since I'm not the most fit person but I trudged on keeping a smile I wasn't going to let anything get me down. I was almost home when I tripped on a crack in the road and mauled my arm in the process. I sighed, smiled and stood up. my arm and hand was bleeding from a few cuts and scrapes not to mention my arm was covered in mud as well. I shook my head and looked up, No! I'm not going to let this one incident bring me down and ruin my whole day, I thought to myself. I wiped myself off and finished the walk. I got home and my grandma arrived a few minutes later helping me to clean it up. She even went back out to the store to get me first aid supplies! She patched me up and was really nice to me! I went the rest of the day keeping my smile and having a great day.

What I'm trying to get at is if you have a good day and feel like nothing can get you down, and then something bad happens and you want to cry. You feel like its all ruined, smile and tell yourself that this isn't your whole day and you can make it better! Try to stay positive and tell yourself it will be alright, don't let the simplest things ruin your entire day and bring you down!
