I'm sure all my students have had moments when you have momentarily reacted to a person or circumstance in a less than cool and collected way.
This is usually for one or more valid reasons, like when:
1.Your personal protocol droid is on the blink.
When this happens, it may leave you floundering for lack of proper guidance in matters of all kinds, and your manners are not up to par.
Even I, illustrious Sires that I am, have had bad days too, when my Protocol Droid has seemingly abandoned me!
But take heart, my dears, this is why I am here.
To help each of you to learn what to do in difficult times or situations when your 3PO has fallen in love with a Cylon and gone dancing, at the expense and risk of your good reputation. And just on the day you have to meet an important noble delegate in the council chambers, to discuss an art grant, and the heel on your shoe has just snapped off after getting off the ascension lift , and you've stood, by accident, on the hem of your long dress with your other shoe, and put a tear in it as well, and then you find out a certain Captain has run off with your twin sister!!!!
And I broke a nail that day too!!!!!!!!!!!
E-hem...(clears her throat anad re-composes herself again). ;D
So, now you know the unexpected can happen to even the best of us.
One thing I do that helps to center oneself once more, is to straighten one's back and lift my chin up, and say....
"I shall go to the Galactica's military ball and dance with Captain Apollo!" (okay, I shouldn't have let you see my panting there... )
Anyhoo, this cheers me up immensely.
Perhaps, you may have something else that may cheer you up instantly and helps you to center again.
Draw on this in your moment of need. Make sure it soemthing that really brings a smile to your face , no matter what is upsetting you.
I would like to hear about some of your own personal stories that had you piqued, and how you handled them.
Affectionatley,
