Two Thousand Twenty-Two (2022): A New Year with a New Attitude

A brand new year always gives us an opportunity to improve. Maybe it’s like a “do-over” in a video game. How many of us take advantage of this chance to do things just a little bit better?

For the past two years we’ve been dealing with a pandemic that has affected our lives in ways we would never have imagined.  We’re now going into a third year and it seems we just can’t get rid of this virus. How will it affect our will to improve our lives? Will it strengthen our resolve, or will we just give up and let it control us? Must we just stand there with our arms crossed?

Regarding school, will we ever get back to some kind of normalcy? If so, what will this “normalcy” look like? How will it feel? Your guess might be as good as mine.

Optimistically, this normalcy should help both teachers and students to adapt and come out stronger in the long run. It definitely will not look anything like what we’ve experienced in the past.  It’s not going to be (and shouldn’t be) the same old routine.

What are your thoughts? Ready or not, 2022 is upon us! ~~LMMolina

This time last year

I was thinking about New Year’s Resolutions and how many people are able to keep. Some people admit it’s much of  hassle and not worth the bother. Is it because the standards are set too high? Goals too unrealistic? A little bit of both, I suppose.  New Year’s resolutions are best kept if they’re attainable. As an educator and blogger, I’ve made my resolution for this year: to post as often as possible. I’m making a commitment to posting once a week with my personal blogs. I think I might be able to do that.  With my professional blogs I usually post more frequently. I’ve also decided to update my profiles periodically. Just to spice things up a little.

What are your resolutions for this year? Will you do your best to keep them? I know I’ll try! I wish you success with yours! ~~LMM
