We have made it to the end of another week and stress levels are beginning to rise for both students and staff. As we all know, stress can manifest in many different ways, most of which is not good. That is why it is important to stop, slow down, and breathe. There is so much going on around us that can cause stress. The news alone is filled with stories that have some sort of connection to some angst for a certain group. We simply can’t escape the hate that exists, but we can fight it. In this world people can hate for no reason, however, we can choose to do the other. I try to spread kindness for no reason. Yes, the times are crazy and I get just as stressed as the next person but my goal remains. I acknowledge that I am far from perfect, but I do try to spread some kindness and laughter when I can, wherever I can, and however I can. With COVID being omnipresent, we have a tendency to forget the impact. The daily exposure makes us numb to the effect it has on the lives around us and the stress it creates. The negative influence equally touches students and staff, just as a positive influence. That is why we all just need to spread a bit more kindness. Have a great weekend. Stay cool...Go PUPS!

Until next time...
