Stop and Think

Daily writing prompt
Do you need a break? From what?

I need a break from the world. The world is probably to much of a general term, but what I mean by world I mean people in my community. For example, I know kids that go to school really happy, but then they come back and are mad and cussing.

If you are anything of a decent person you would ask them why they’re mad. They would reply with, School. That’s all they say until you press further. What about school? It seems like my teachers hate me, and they say they don’t have favorites, but they do. They single you out on the first day if you make a mistake. Then they never stop to understand what really happened in the future.

If you are a teacher reading this you might think, but we don’t hate the kids we love them they hate act horrible. Yes they may have behavior issues, but that doesn’t mean that you get to get mad at them every single time they mess up. We know you aren’t perfect just try to make an effort of it.

I think that the world needs a restart. I think that we all need to slow down, take life in and really understand the situation. For instance. If you are a Football coach and your Quarterback slips while taking the snap. You would probably get mad at them for making a dumb mistake. But what if you didn’t really know what had happened. What if your Quarterback had rolled his ankle while he stepped back.

All I’m trying to say is that sometimes we just need to slow down!
