Just wrote this poem to celebrate the first day of Autumn. Hope you enjoy.

Welcome Autumn…

Like a good friend…

The space between a leaf floating through the air before it hits the ground…

From a branch off it was torn… 

This is where ideas are born…

The space between the leaf blown by the wind and hindered…

Away and sailing through the air, here it is where loved ones are forever remembered…

The space between human observation and imagination is where we cherish the ones whom love us inside the song of the singing birds celebration…

Each fallen leaf is a new memory waiting to happen…

Reminding one to rejoice in life…

So let down your strife…

And make a wish…

Because today is the first day of Autumn…

When anything is possible and everything begins again…

Like a good friend…

Welcome Autumn…

“These are my fins and I ask myself what I’m doing with my thoughts to make the best use of them,” Ben whispered before he looked up at snail. “The coral reef is sick.” 

“Oh well, someone will eventually help it,” Snail said indifferently. 

Ben paused for a moment. 

“But, what if that someone is us…?”

Who would have thought value could derive from not knowing what you’re feeling? Well, it can and it’s embedded in trying on different emotions and refining one’s decision-making process!!!

For example, Faye wanted to play outside, but it just started raining. She feels like she should have went outside earlier when she had opportunity… But, she has her book next to her and enjoys reading during storms. Faye is feeling two emotions at the same time and or not knowing what to feel. 

Faye is feeling Wistful. She feels a little sad she didn’t go outside, but then decides to try on the idea of feeling complacent with the current situation. This leads to feeling peaceful with the next idea of reading during a storm and ultimately feeling tranquil engaged in the activity. 

Trying on different emotions is a valuable resource, because it helps one decide which level of interpretational outcome they feel satisfied with. This builds self-trust and confidence in the decision-making process. This is a vital attribute in all human interaction and career development. 

How exciting to share self-generated ideas and journal entries made within the scope and trajectory of the curriculum!!

Today’s demonstrations were Wistful and Regret. Identifying and processing these emotions is a starting point for learning and solving problems. Both can derive from multiple contexts with differing functions.

We built on concepts previously learned and applied elements of emotional processing levels to our interpretations.

Everyone expressed Wistful and Regret in their own unique and constructive way!

Please feel free to follow along at home and share your own progress at your own pace!!

What does it mean to feel two emotions at the same time or vaguely know which one to feel? Why is the ability to try on different emotions a valuable resource?
