Do you love what you do?

Posted on 22:30 by Unknown
I do!

When I returned from Arizona, abruptly, I had no idea what I would do for a job. By the grace of God, I got a job that taught me a lot about myself, all while being able to pay my bills. I learned what I do and don't want to do. I learned the kind of person I do and don't want to be. I realized that I probably never want to own a business, at least not if it is anything like what I saw. I just learned and grew a ton. I was in that job for 9 months, which was just long enough for both my employer and myself to know that I was miserable there. I left on good terms, it just wasn't a right fit.

I love my job now. It is SO SO SO different than anything I ever thought that I would be doing. I generally run and hide from pre-school age children. They just aren't my favorite. In fact, I would much rather deal with High School students. Having all that been said, I am surprised everyday with how much I enjoy my job.

I love the hours. I love the community that we are serving. I love that I get to speak Spanish everyday. I love the people that I work with, most of them being women my mother's age. :)
I just love it.

I don't dread going to work. I have energy when I get home, even if it is a 10 hour day.

It is a nice change.

I have been working in this job for 3 months now, and couldn't be happier! :)

I still get the itch to work in the music industry whenever I am at a show or am talking to someone on tour. I have not let that dream go. I am not pursuing it, but I haven't let it go. Maybe it will just look differently than I had originally anticipated...

We shall see!

I hope you love what you do.
