For the young ones struggling with home school stress
You can’t be wrong
You can get something wrong in a book,
or on a page,
but you inside
that you, will still be all right
and good and loved
Don’t fear if you get something wrong
You’ll be losing the love
of the very people that matter most
I know life can make it feel like that sometimes
But
If you get something wrong
It’s not the end of the world
It doesn’t matter
You will still have my love
You are still safe
In life we all get things wrong
And many times we get them right too
But what stays the same is
how much you are loved
As really that’s for free!
Not about how much we show we can do
But simply because of who We Are
You can feel less pressure to have to
get things right
When you know
If you get them wrong
We still love you very much
You are still all right
and good inside as You
You know
Instead of trying so hard today
to get it all right
in order to feel good
Let’s practice getting things wrong instead
Let’s feel in to how we feel
when we get something wrong
Let’s practice feeling scared of
letting people down
And let’s find out together
That getting things wrong
Doesn’t stop us being loved
by those that matter
Wouldn’t it be amazing if in
homeschool lockdown
Instead of the pressure of having to learn
more & more stuff
We used some of our time with those who love us
to actually unlearn and stop
that feeling of having to be scared about getting it wrong
What if we found a way to learn
that felt better and nicer and less scary after-all
What if we found how to let
all that awful pressure go
What if we found how to love and like
ourselves just for Us
And found out others did too
That letting go would help us SO much
Not just right now
But in All of our Life
