Relax in Being You!

I’m just sitting here thinking about how my life has been. I’ve accomplished a lot of things. I’m proud of myself. However the thing I haven’t accomplished is being comfortable with who I am. This has been a true struggle. Realizing who I am and being comfortable being who I am in public and in private. As I sit and think, I start to realize that some of my actions are not my own. They stem from the way I think others want me to behave, the way I saw others do things when I was younger, the way my family believes things should be done. Once I relax in who I truly am and clear out all the other stuff, I can enjoy being me. I can love being me. “ An old white woman, trapped in a black man body…. that is gay but not that gay” LOL 😂 I love who I am! If I make you feel uncomfortable…… just relax in being you!

Other people can’t change who you are because you are you!

Daily Affirmations: Today is a Wonderful Day. I truly love who I am. I’m in love with me. I am who I am, and who I am, I love. My life is fabulously blessed. I am healthy, wealthy, whole, and complete. ALL IS WELL IN MY CLASSROOM. ALL IS WELL IN MY SCHOOL. ALL IS WELL IN MY WORLD. ALL IS WELL AND I AM SAFE. #IBlessMyWorldWithLove

Mr Demby’s Teaching Philosophy!

Teachers. Don’t overlook teachable moments trying to teach! Many times we’re so busy trying to follow the curriculum, that we miss major life shaping lessons. Your teaching should inspire your students, so if they are asking questions; help them find the answers. Even if the question doesn’t pertain to to this particular lesson you’re teaching. If children are excited about something enough to ask about it, go with it. It is my belief that children don’t really learn from what you teach, but from how you teach. Case in point, we were doing a piano lesson in class. We were learning to play D-F-A. One of my students said, “ I wonder how pianos makes sounds”? I instantly took the top off the piano and call the students over and showed them the hammers and mechanisms. Then I allowed them to touch it. They were amazed. That wasn’t the lesson. The lesson came the next time someone had a question about something. “Let’s take it apart and see, just like we did the piano” ! That was the lesson!

Daily Affirmations: Today is an Awe-inspiring Day! I look forward to what every new hour brings. My life is divinely guided and I am always headed in the best direction. Every experience is an opportunity to learn and grow. I am healthy, wealthy, whole, and complete. ALL IS WELL IN MY CLASSROOM. ALL IS WELL IN MY SCHOOL. ALL IS WELL IN MY WORLD. ALL IS WELL AND I AM SAFE. #IBlessMyWorldWithLove

U. G. L. Y.

Good Morning Most Awesome and Wonderful World Changers! With everything going on in our country, it shows that a lot of people don’t love themselves. By hating someone else, it’s shows the parts of you that you hate the most. So today let’s be UGLY and learn to love ourselves. There was this comedian who started saying that years ago. I’m not sure who, but the joke was instead of people calling you ugly to your face, they would simply say, “ You got to love yourself!” As I get older, I realize that in this life, that’s where we all need to get to; Loving ourselves. If more people loved themselves, there would be more people spreading love to others.

Daily Affirmations: Today is a Magnificent Day. I choose to feel good about myself. I love who I see in the mirror. I truly love who I am. I am grateful to be alive. Living in my present moments makes me feel good. I am loving and lovable. I’m easy to love. I am healthy, wealthy, whole, and complete. ALL IS WELL IN MY CLASSROOM. ALL IS WELL IN MY SCHOOL. ALL IS WELL IN MY WORLD. ALL IS WELL AND I AM SAFE. #IBlessMyWorldWithLove

Mind Your Own Business!

Good Morning Most Awesome and Wonderful World Changers! Many times we get angry about somebody else’s situation (even though it has nothing to do with us) . But because we feel so passionate about it, we start (many times unknown to us) inviting their experience into our own. Something happens to someone at work, then we start thinking everyone is out to get us. We hear about somebody having some type of injustice and we start think it’s going to happen to us. My question is. . . . . Is there a way to care for others and have compassion for their situation without inviting their experience into yours? I like to think so but it’s a thin line between having compassion for someone or something and inserting yourself into their problems. Now it may seem selfish and uncaring but we are here to make sure we live our very best life. Each person has their own journey and we don’t know what those people were thinking at the time of their seeming injustice. To them they might have thought, ” What a relief, I got fired. Now I can work on my dreams ” All the while, we are upset and angry because they got fired. Now we feel horrible and they’re relieved. See what I mean. So I say mind your own business. Send love to the injustice of the world and you do what you have to do to remain joyful.

Daily Affirmations: Today is a Wonderful day. I choose to move forward with joy and ease. I believe people are good. I only invite joy, love, and peace into my experience. I send love to all the injustices of the world. I am wonderful. Good things always come my way. I am healthy, wealthy, whole, and complete. ALL IS WELL IN MY CLASSROOM. ALL IS WELL IN MY SCHOOL. ALL IS WELL IN MY WORLD. ALL IS WELL AND I AM SAFE. #IBlessMyWorldWithLove
