So, I'm almost finished my five years of university. Got my teacher's degree near completion. Wow! I should be overwhelmed with excitement. Freedom from studying! Then I think wow now I have to enter the "real" world. I have to get a "real" job. I have to do all the work of teaching students. I don't like hard work. I like fun. I like conversations where we talk about ideals. I don't want to have to actually put in any difficult effort to make those dreams come true.
Anything truly worthwhile is worth laying down one's life for (and not just one big dramatic martyrdom). Going through the struggles. Becoming stronger. I gotta learn to laugh through those tough things. And grab the hand of my neighbour for that extra push along. I will make it. And I am absolutely grateful to God for each and everyone of you my friends. I wouldn't have made it this far without you anyways.
It's become so clear to me that I do belong teaching children, and God has just favoured me so much. In my interview with the Abbotsford schoolboard, I actually had fun (something I had asked God for the night before) and I got to sing my song about children and war for them. A rocking time!
