A School Year Begins

2015-2016. I see this and it  means a school year. 180 days. Like the dates on a gravestone, noting start to finish. This dash contains learning, growing, instructing. Tears. Anger. Peace, joy, and togetherness. I am not afraid of this year, of what it may bring. I anticipate the growth. Several days down. Many more to go. Bring it!
