Describe a time when someone’s words had a lasting impact on you

 prompt: A while ago, a mentor said something to me that really stuck: "You can’t control what happens to you, but you can control how you respond." At the time, I was feeling overwhelmed by something out of my control. But those words gave me a shift in perspective. It reminded me that while I might not always have power over the circumstances, I do have control over how I react. Since then, I’ve carried that lesson with me and it’s made a huge difference in how I approach challenges.

summary: Today we had a snow day

reflection: Overall today was good and I was happy I didn't have school
