【Report for June 30th】 The morning glories bloom
Hello everyone.
By the way, have you been happy recently? Something that made you so happy that I jumped involuntarily? I unfortunately cannot give you the answer as to why. It may be that we tend to forget what is important in life because we get caught up in trivial things every day, then worry about what we can't do, and blame ourselves.
Well, in 4th period today, outside is lively. I thought it might be a problem, so I went outside and…
"Come over here." "Oh, close your eyes first, then come over."
A first grade student called me over.
There doesn't seem to be a problem. So I was guided somewhere, and followed him until he said "That's enough."
When I opened my eyes, I saw a wide-open morning glory swaying in front of me. "Mine bloomed first!" the first year student said with a small dance. The morning glories that we have been taking care of and observing every day, and have been waiting impatiently for the day when they will bloom, have finally done so today. The moment they found out, the teachers and children shared their joy by high-fiving each other.
"From now on, about 1000 will bloom." Their joy spreads with nature, and I can't help but dance here.
Back in the staff room, I ruminated on their smiles and asked myself the opening question.
A single flower blooms and explodes with joy to the point of jumping. Not only this example, but the children express various emotions every day in a very rich way. If we could borrow their eyes, the world will surely be coloured with infinite colours. We adults are "learning" in the world, and before we know it, we are losing that colour, or perhaps we are averting our eyes.
The "little frenzy" about a single morning glory suddenly reminded me of something important.
