Before I retired [I need another word for this concept…left? moved on from?] traditional education, I honored personal school traditions year after year. One of those was on the first school day of May.
I invited students (And YOU today!) to finish the sentence stem:
One day MAYbe…
Grade level or age does not matter for this prompt. It is universal and always applies.
I saved a few student examples. I try to prompt them with a few ideas with suggestions/questions:
Where would you love to travel? What career sounds fun to you?
One day MAYbe the weather will even out and it will actually look like spring.
One day MAYbe I will be a full-time writer.
One day MAYbe I will be a princess. [All the money and no responsibility besides parties.]
One day MAYbe I’ll stand under blossoming cherry trees in Japan.
MAYbe one day I will finish my TBR pile.
One day MAYbe I will be able to eat pizza for every meal.
I am always looking for the every day magic. Some days it is easier to find it than others, but it usually is in writing!
I invite you to finish the phrase –
ONE DAY MAYBE…
Where is your magic today?

One day, MAYbe my hair will be silver.
I don't like the word retire either. A friend calls it launching and I call it metamorphosis!
