Lewis lukemccarty23 https://padlet.com/kathryn_mcdonell/g3ejth305mi4r4hn/wish/506241142 This image shows that everyone can be extraordinary, and you do not need a superpower to be extraordinary.

This shows how rising up and being your own person is better than staying with the crowd and being what other people want you to be.

If we believe that tomorrow will be better, we can bear a hardship today.”– Thich Nhat Hanh https://padlet.com/kathryn_mcdonell/g3ejth305mi4r4hn/wish/507449366 This quote to me gives out the message of not letting these hard times get to the best of us and to keep our heads up. To try to think of all the small positive things, rather than to let the big negative issues overtake us, which if one were to let the negative feeling enter their mind, it would result in giving up all hope of a better tomorrow.]]> 2020-04-14 23:28:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kathryn_mcdonell/g3ejth305mi4r4hn/wish/507449366 Madison Schmidt/ "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." -Viktor E.

A great example of this is in our modern day with covid-19 but we will find a cure, we will find vaccines and when we do we will take off. The hard part is done now we just need to soar toward our destination. ]]> 2020-04-16 12:15:21 UTC https://padlet.com/kathryn_mcdonell/g3ejth305mi4r4hn/wish/510523196 McKinna Moore/“I believe in Making the Most of Now!I don't know what tomorrow Promises,But I do have this Hour, this Minute, this Second..To Smile.” ― Somya Kedia https://padlet.com/kathryn_mcdonell/g3ejth305mi4r4hn/wish/511034220 This quote to me is what life is about making the most out of a situation but also every day. Every day we wake up is a blessing many of us underestimate.

But change is its motivator. And change has its enemies." https://padlet.com/kathryn_mcdonell/g3ejth305mi4r4hn/wish/513265329 This pandemic has forced us to change the way we do things.

For my picture I choose a coal with a diamond in the middle to show that a bad situation can be turned into something great ]]> 2020-04-17 16:26:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kathryn_mcdonell/g3ejth305mi4r4hn/wish/513268868 Alex Goldschmidt / "The primary cause of an unhappiness is never the situation but your thoughts about it" (Eckhart Tolle) https://padlet.com/kathryn_mcdonell/g3ejth305mi4r4hn/wish/513356428
As humans we think the worse of most situations. but if you find the good in a bad situation, it isn't as bad as it was before. find the good in something for once.

But the intent to evolve will produce opportunities for growth." - Robin D. Hart https://padlet.com/kathryn_mcdonell/g3ejth305mi4r4hn/wish/514487210 This quote means you cannot make something happen overnight without changing yourself.

But how are you gonna make the situation better?" - Tony Dungy https://padlet.com/kathryn_mcdonell/g3ejth305mi4r4hn/wish/517820471 This quote means that in hard times not only make the best of a situation but to think the best of a situation. You can't reverse a situation that you're in by complaining.]]> 2020-04-20 15:16:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kathryn_mcdonell/g3ejth305mi4r4hn/wish/517820471 Ella McDowell/ "Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end." -John Lennon. ellamcdowell23 https://padlet.com/kathryn_mcdonell/g3ejth305mi4r4hn/wish/529203300 This quote means, just because life is difficult now, doesn't mean everything is over, and that you will struggle forever. You have to be patient in overcoming hard situations, and understand that it will get better. The picture I chose is a photograph of a rainbow coming out of storm clouds, which I think symbolizes the message of my quote; even though there are hard times, it will be alright eventually.
