Here’s to Monday

Here’s to Monday:
Here’s to a new day, in a new week, in a new mindset.
Here’s to going back to work or school after a nice weekend that I want to keep going. 
It may be hard to cheer for Monday through the sleepiness and rushing-out-the-doorness, but thank you Monday, for your never ending new opportunities and chances for me to make this week mine. Here’s to Monday, for my weekly dose of hope. 

The magic of Monday

It’s a Monday morning, and I’m tired.

I didn’t finish all my homework, none of my clothes seem to look good, and I’m not excited to spend my day at school.   

But, today presents so many new opportunities! Maybe I will pack an awesome lunch and look forward to it all morning. Maybe I will say hi to the person next to me in my history class and get the chance to meet someone awesome! Maybe is word that is filled with possibility and hope. Maybe is waiting to be defined, and today, I hold the power to define it. New weeks can be hard, but they can also be wonderful. With the right playlist for my drive to school and a cup of coffee in my hand as I walk down the halls, this day can be mine. 

Here is a blessing for the new week:

Here’s to a new day, in a new week, in a new mindset.

Here’s to going back to work or school after a nice weekend that I want to keep going. 

It may be hard to cheer for Monday through the sleepiness and rushing-out-the-doorness, but thank you Monday, for your never ending new opportunities and chances for me to make this week mine. Here’s to Monday, for my weekly dose of hope.
