Have you ever felt like you were going to be invincible, but then something came along and pushed you over? Were you strong enough to get back up? Did the outcome of the fall have a positive or negative effect on you?

How do you see your glass, is it half full or half empty? Until this week, I never understood the meaning of this saying. I used to think it didn’t matter how you saw it, but I was wrong.
The beginning of the week started off really well as it was Shavuot, or as Christians call it, Pentecost. I had Sunday and Monday off school so I made sure spend them wisely. Have you ever said the words, “I don’t have time?” It’s an easy sentence to say, but did you really mean it or was it just an excuse to not do something?
Every day this week I’ve been saying those four words and it’s become a bad habit. I hit the ground running at the beginning of this week and didn’t stop until I crashed on Shabbat. Every day, I was constantly doing something and barely had time to relax before it was time for bed. There were countless things to be done in the day, it was as if the list kept piling up. Each time I had finished one thing, someone would need help with something else or I had to do more homework. Don’t get me wrong, it was a good week, but I was very happy when Shabbat arrived. Life is so simple when it’s just you and an empty house, but when you add two more people and a dog, things get a bit hectic. The house becomes noisy, larger meals are to be prepared, and the animals want attention.
