My mother died when I was 4 years old. My Dad was heavily drinking and my older brother and I couldn't live with him. We had to live in Foster Homes for awhile. I understand what it's like to be bounced around when you are a young person. What I've learned is that Human Beings are super Resilient and Super Tough. What doesn't kill you Does make you stronger and you can become an amazing person, in part, born of the trials you go through. The hardships you go through will make you an empathetic and compassionate person who will understand how to help and reach out to others. <3

accepting everything how it is , not forcing a better outcome . I've learnt that even trying to fix something could just makes things worse ... my difficult climb as I'm still trying to climb is for me being accepted and being understood .. i know i mess things up but I try to and just want to do is to better myself, feelings of being stuck in a dilemma that I try to get myself out of. Fighting myself/thoughts will be the most rewarding climb I'd ever would ever want to achieve <3...

I learned that the US got tradition like Christmas trees, Easter bunny, and Santa clause from Germany! I learned that in Rosemary’s class.

I like to use exercise as a way to let out negative emotions. It helps me feel calmer and think through things.

This week, I had two students turn valuable items into the lost and found. I thought this was really cool and it showed integrity how they cared and wanted those items to be returned. It’s the small things!

My favorite line of the creed is about choices having results. I like this because I believe it’s important to recognize that we have to be responsible and accept consequences (good and bad!). When making decisions, we have to think about the results.

It has been challenging to watch my children struggle. One child in particular has struggled with addiction. Knowing how to support her and get her help has been a challenge. Seeing her overcome and growing closer to her has been so rewarding.

Whenever I go shopping with my babies, I really appreciate when people pull out a cart for me because I'm holding a kid. Or when they open the door, because again my arms are full with babies. Or when they let me go first so I can get out of the store faster. Or when people offer to put my cart away so I can buckle up my kids. There are so many kind people in the world.

She wasn't around this week, so I'm posting an oldie. Jen is an incredible human. She's so fascinating. I could listen to her talk for hours. I swear she's been everywhere and has done everything. She knows multiple languages. She takes classes and tries new things. She's a good listener and gives good advice. She's freakin funny as well. I just love her and wish I could spend more time with her.

Growing up my family didn't manage money very well. I knew my parents had a lot of debt and there wasn't a lot of money for extra things like eating out, vacations, etc. I wanted a different life as an adult, so I've tried to learn more about budgeting and managing money. At times it's been hard when it seems like all my friends are playing hard and traveling the world while my husband and I have chosen to save. BUT We're hitting some big financial goals that are pretty exciting and will change my family tree.

I learned the term "gaslighting" comes from a play entitled "Gaslight" where a husband uses deception and trickery to make his wife feel insane. Uplifting, I know.

I love the thought that we are never stuck as we currently are. We can make small adjustments to be better and better versions of ourselves. I also think it's important to be well-balanced. "I'm committed to personal growth in all areas of life: physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual."

# data[].attributes.body
one of my most difficult challenges I've been through is having a unsupportive abusive parent. Although not physically abusive, spiritual and emotional abuse i would argue are just if not more harmful, they break your brain and your spirit! I've spent the last 3 years in therapy trying to recover from these experiences. I am still in therapy (2 therapys even) to try and resolve my trauma! but i am doing better than i was 3 years ago and I'm proud of it

She’s helped me a lot these past few months when I doubt myself she is there to have faith in me and encourage me to do my best and without that support it would have been a lot harder to get to where I am today, and whenever she would listen to me talk about my problems I never felt like I was a student and she was a staff member it always felt like two friends talking about life and how to get through it. -Kadence

Setting boundaries for yourself to help live a healthy lifestyle and admitting when you’re in the wrong if in the situation, don’t lie to loved ones or people in general but also don’t be too blunt it can be mean, have a higher expectation for yourself you can do more than you know. - Kadence

“I show respect to others so I can respect myself and be deserving of the respect of other” this line has taught me to be kind and caring towards all, it’s harder to respect yourself when it’s not deserved when you deserve to be respected and actually get respect it means a whole lot more. -Kadence

A little piece about Summit.

- Summit is a family that is always there
- Summit is a friend that will be there when we feel like we’re going nowhere
- Summit will always be in my mind on the darkest days
- Summit will always be in my heart even when I’m not there.
