I have always had a love for teaching, and I am very grateful for the opportunity given to me by Children's Home to do so for the past year. Although we've had many differences, our objective was shared and it took nearly no time at all for me to fall in love with the subjects of my cause. I recognize that although the environment itself was not a good fit, the work I committed day in and day out is exactly what my purpose here is. Finally, after months of seeking other opportunities to no avail and expressing a strong interest in moving on, I am taking the plunge....without any safety nets. This is one of the most risky and seemingly foolish decisions I have ever made, and I find that absolutely exhilarating. The consistent safe player in me is silenced because I've come to realize that the risk taker reaps many more benefits. I have failed so many times, and in various ways. Though it seems like I am driving right into hardship, I feel like it's needed.
Knowing that a month from now my life will be entirely different is exciting to me.
A girl who is "the planner" or "the foreseer" is taking a blind leap into her next chapter.
That, is growth.
Yes, I'm scared. But it's a healthy fear.
I'm going to rock my life, no matter which arena I am entering.
