Dec. 20, 2021 - Last night my wife and I watched two inspiring documentaries - "Sky Ladder" and "14 Peaks." Sky Ladder is about an artist who has a vision to build a "ladder" to the heavens, and 14 Peaks is about a climber who wants to climb the 14 highest peaks in the world in record time.
Even though one movie is about an artist and the other is about an athlete, they are really both about the same thing - staying positive. It can be easy to let things get you down, particularly in this world we are living in. These movies are a good reminder that, no matter the obstacle, the most important thing is to keep believing and stay positive.
We keep our positive energy in class today...I hope you enjoy it!
