A Teachable Moment…

Sometimes you can feel like you are taking a long journey by yourself, but you are never alone. With God all recoveries are possible…

I know that you may have come here today solely for fashion advice or inspiration, but I want to inspire you in a different way. Here is a Teachable Moment I experienced this week:

One of my mentees was caught on-camera engaging in sexual activity and became embarrassed at school. I allowed her to sit in my classroom today to do her work because she did not want to even lift her head as she walked down the hall. When my last period class came into the room, one of the students came to me privately and asked why I would want her in my space. I replied, “Was I supposed to give up on her because you did?” The student walked away, completely understanding the meaning of my statement. Don’t judge. Be your sister and brother’s keeper. Keep your head up when others try to hold you down.

The youth are watching.

Thank you for not giving up on her. The world, at times, can b a cruel place for adults and even more so for children.
