Likewise @Former-Member . I feel illuminated reading your posts too. It is certainly so comforting to know that a a small 'insignificant' thing can turn a borderline from death's door.

 

I had a good day today. Kids bring me so much joy. I listened to talk-back radio today. A caller phoned and said that as a teacher, they'd never put aside teaching to take up a job that pays $30k more, purely because the joy on students' faces is priceless.

 

This is what I felt today.

 

I gave the kids a project where they had to make a boat out of foil. They then placed marbles in the boat and had to count how many marbles the boat could hold before sinking. The kids had so much fun. I just had fun watching them.

 

Kids are my protective factor. It keeps me alive.

 

What's your protective factor @Former-Member ?
