“Making your mark on the world is hard. If it were easy, everybody would do it. But it’s not. It takes patience, it takes commitment, and it comes with plenty of failure along the way. The real test is not whether you avoid this failure, because you won’t. It’s whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere.”
~Barack Obama
Welcome to our VERY first blog post as NEW Grade Three bloggers! We are looking forward to connecting with the world this year! We are BRAND new to this, and haven’t even decided what we will CALL ourselves as bloggers. But … we HAD to share our amazing adventure celebrating DOT DAY!
After settling down to enjoy Peter Reynold’s inspiring story The Dot, we had an AWESOME time talking about the deeper meaning behind Vashti’s story and exploring the AMAZING collection of Celebri-Dots! We were SO surprised and THRILLED to see that Commander Chris Hadfield had contributed a dot as WELL!
Commander Chris Hadfield has inspired us in SO many ways!
We hope you enjoy this little video we put together, and we’d LOVE to hear your thoughts about how you make YOUR mark on the world!
Go ahead … MAKE your mark! Be BRAVE … TRY new things … KEEP on GROWING!
We wonder:
- Have YOU read The Dot?
- Have you ever been faced with a challenge that you have overcome by PERSEVERING? We’d LOVE to hear about it!
