Do you remember the last time you were happy... because of something that happened to someone else? Being happy because they were happy? I experience this every day at work.
These are just a few examples:
- When the kids are getting enthusiastic because I want to play with them
'Hey, kids, can I play with lego too?'
'Yeees!' they all say happily.
'Let me show you how to build a house' one of them says.
'I'm going to show you how to build a garage for the policeman.' a differrent boy adds.
'That sounds really exciting' I say.
The other children in the class watch us curiously.
'Do you want to play too?' I ask them. 'Why don't we build the highest tower ever made out of lego? Do you want to help me?'
And soon all the kids are around the table each helping me build the tower.
-When they are thrilled because I am telling them a story and afterwards I give them a coloring sheet about the story.
'Did you bring us something to color today, Dana?'
'Yes I did.'
'Oh yeaaaaah!!! Can't wait!'
-When they all come towards me and hug me in the biggest, tightest group hug ever every time they see me once a week
They're all sweethearts and even though they have their bad days when they don't seem to want to obey or follow rules I still love them to bits and their happiness becomes my happiness daily!
