This is so true. When I first joined the Slice of Life community years ago I had no idea how it would fuel my passion for writing. Not only did it help me realize I had words to share, but it also opened me up to a world of writers and friends. Come share your story today and find inspiration from this talented and encouraging community of writers.

Hi everyone, Here’s my “Slice of Life Post” about my son and his moral compass. Things we learn from our kids! 🙂

Today I can’t figure out how to introduce this slice, so I guess this will have to suffice:

My slice today about a writing LIFE fits in with the Betsy’s quote and post above. Funny how we see common themes emerge among us.

BETSY, That quote and your post are my feelings exactly. This week I have whistled up a new tune called the Senior Salon.

When you hear “celebrate”, what image comes to mind? What if “celebrate” was re-purposed to build success, stamina, and a positive mindset and classroom culture!

I love Betsy’s quote- it is so true! An odd slice today, about a stuffed mouse who has become a treasure!

I got “lost” in the Minneapolis airport and bought a new class pet. Two of my students wrote creative stories about the squirrel’s discovery. https://reflectionsontheteche.wordpress.com/2015/12/08/squirrels-and-bears-in-the-minneapolis-airport/
Reading another’s opinion in Sunday’s Washington Post pushed me to write this response, because I have the exact opposite opinion and I can write about it!

Betsy, You are right about this amazing community of writers and friends!! I’m honored to be a part of it. I’ve been inspired to step out and declare a dream of mine today in my post. Scary, but this is such a safe place! Writing retreats and how they change me… http://1gratefulteacher.blogspot.com/2015/12/writing-renewal-retreats.html
