Notes & Quotes
Mr. Mullis’ Weekly Letter
“Worrying does not empty tomorrow of its troubles, it empties
today of its strength.” This quote by Corrie ten Boom reminds me of a
lesson I learned years ago. When we worry about the future we miss out
on the joys of today. Looking past the present towards a future event
doesn’t do justice to the journey we are on in life. When my family travels
for vacation, we try to enjoy the “to” and “from” as much as the
destination itself. Whether it’s the scenery, a side trip to a silly tourist
attraction or taking the small town route instead of the interstate; all of
these experiences help us to appreciate the here and now instead of
wasting it away. The same can be said for all of us who worry to much
about our troubles. When we dwell on our troubles, it takes away the
positive experiences that are part of our daily journey. Reminding
ourselves to “stop and smell the roses” every day can help to lessen our
worries and broaden our smiles. Once we accomplish that, our whole life
journey will take a positive route to our final destination. After all,
there’s no need for us to bring up all our worries each day; there’s plenty
of people who do that for us. Smile, be happy and enjoy the ride!
Our Spirit Week has been awesome so far. I loved seeing the
different decades represented on Tuesday and all the Wacky
accessories today. Our students certainly know how to dress up.
Tomorrow we have our HR spirit day where all students can wear
their jersey or a HR shirt with jeans/PE shorts. Our pep rally will
begin at 1:30pm in the Wiley gym. We will recognize all our fall
sport athletes and be entertained by our cheerleaders as they
perform their routine. Come join us as we show off our RAM pride
and have fun during spirit week. Our last Spirit Week activity is the
Skating Party on Friday. It is being held at the East End skating
rink from 3:30pm-5:30pm. It’s a great way to end our week!
