Mary’s Minute


“It’s only after you’ve stepped outside your comfort zone that you begin to change, grow, and transform.” 
                                                                                         ― 
Roy T. Bennett

I have always felt like I was pretty open to change, but at the same time, I feel fortunate to have rested in the cocoon of a nurturing work environment Perry Central has provided. 

As the new school year begins, I have my typical feelings of optimism and excitement that a new year brings.  Perry Central has a great team, and a lot of new and wonderful things happening.  In addition to these warm fuzzy feelings, I am also feeling a little anxiety about change.

In the next five months, I will leave the comfort of Perry Central, and also leave my baby boy 2,000 miles from home.  I definitely feel like I am stepping out of my comfort zone.  I admit it is a little scary, but mostly I am excited about the opportunity to change, grow, and transform.

I am fortunate that I have planned my changes.  We do not always have the option.  Darlene Davis certainly wasn’t planning to start her school year recovering from brain surgery, but since it has been forced upon her, she is facing it with strength and grace.  She will certainly change, grow, and transform.

Whether your changes are planned or unplanned, I hope as this school year begins, you can push through the walls of your comfort zone to change, grow, and transform.
