The energy I felt today, I have not felt in over a year. Overwhelming, uncontrollable, taking over your entire body type of energy. Energy that just will not quit. Jumping around, bouncing off the walls, unable to control yourself energy. Wouldn't it be great if you could get that kind of energy from going to work?
Well I do.
And I realize how incredibly lucky I am to be able to say that at 22, I am doing exactly what I want to be. With an economy that has some of my more applied, better educated and better spoken friends still trying to find work. In a time where positivity and hope are endangered, I am doing exactly what I want to be doing and I leave work knowing that I gave my students my all. Honestly, in a nation forcing individuals to navigate so many unjust and broken systems, what is better than that?
I can truthfully say I went to work today, and gave it my all. I pray that I was able to reach my students, but if not, tomorrow is a new day, with a whole new bucket of said "all" that I will be giving to those young people. I am 22 and doing exactly what I know I should be doing.
And it's a great feeling.
