Dog-tired but Speaking Joy

Voice is a great tool. Well, I don't mean it is the only useful tool, of course. There are some different ways to change the world. At least your own world. It can also be I'm a chatterbox. ;) 

Today I spoke a lot. Mostly English and just a bit German with my students who come to me on Saturdays. I hope our speaking changes their lives a bit. At least it does mine. I am happy I can sometimes inspire someone  to enjoy to speak English. It also seems to me that some of my students have fun to talk to me. And what really makes me feel over the moon is when I manage to make them smile. I don't believe in any good teaching methods if they do not include smiling or some little jokes. A good sense of kind humour breaks the ice and makes people feel better. 

I'm grateful for my busy day. Sure, I could peacefully sleep instead of struggling to open my eyes early today...Of course, I would enjoy my sweet dreams...but I'm happy to confess that despite the fact that I am dog-tired now, I am happy. I'm going to jump into my bed now (I really mean what I am writing now! ;) I always sort of 'jump' into my bed, since it's a 'tall' one! ;) ). I hope I'll have another day tomorrow. Another miracle. I'm grateful for my feeling tired and for being able to use my voice. I'm grateful to God for His mercy to me. I'm grateful for the voices of people I love so much...
