This wasn't a *school* concert, wasn't it?<br /><br />Anonymous: AGOSCI says this a lot in their work. Living is always good for understanding. Meanwhile they have their living to live and for you to understand.<br /><br />@FlutistPride: probably my highlight would be "Hotel California" and "Put a little love in your heart", of course.Adelaide Duponthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01490123934889071074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-48118342828585645002016-06-14T11:39:27.928-04:002016-06-14T11:39:27.928-04:00What did they sing for?

There is a quote that says something about when you know better then do better. <br /><br />I also think about this when parents (even me at times) get upset (and vent) about others not understanding or getting it. I often feel that way about my family. But I have to remind myself that to understand it like I do then they would have to be living it also.<br /><br />P.S. I could use a little Ben Zen in my life. Thanks for sharing him too!<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-86170661918747525682016-06-14T09:38:38.319-04:002016-06-14T09:38:38.319-04:00Thank you for posting!

It was our first time attending and my son's first time competing in statewide competition. My son's gymnastics team has athletes of many different abilities, whom we see at practice each week, but SONJ gave me the opportunity to spend very concentrated time with a large variety of people. It really struck me how much more alike we are than different.

We can't obsess over our past errors, it just is not healthy. But Max did a wonderful job performing! He has come so far, I remember when he wouldn't even participate in school concerts.
