It has been a very long time since I wrote on this thing. It mostly has to do with the fact that school is crazy, I was very sick, and once winter break came, I just needed a lot of time to work on myself.
So here I am. Tomorrow is the first day of my last semester of school...for now ;-). And here I am procrastinating like I always do. Some things will never change I guess. But, I have changed a lot. After dealing with being extremely sick from the minute I walked in the door on the last day of last semester until New Year's, and then having some horrific stomach virus/food poisoning...I have made it. I've done a lot of soul searching over the past few weeks and have learned some really great things about myself.
I have finally made some decisions that will allow me to make a path for myself over the next few months for when I graduate. I'm trying to get several documents together so I can apply to be an Adjunct Professor at a few different schools. Or maybe I can get a few different teaching gigs. I have been doing a lot of networking over the past few works so I am feeling a little more positive about things. I sit everyday and envision what life will be like once I am done with school because I believe that if we have faith in ourselves, our goals will actually happen.
I have been dealing with a few difficult situations over the past few weeks, but I have learned to be content with the way things are and know that it will all be alright eventually. I have learned that people make mistakes and things might not be exactly what we thought they were, but we just keep moving forward. It is all part of some great plan that God has made just for me.
Another great thing that I have done is the "21 Days of Yoga" challenge. Tomorrow is the last day. I have practiced every single day except one due to an emergency. The benefits have been amazing. I feel wonderful and have realized the divinity in myself that God has created, and it has allowed me to really changed my relationships with people. I noticed that I am more willing to help. I am not as quickly angered. I am less likely to judge someone. And I could just go on and on. My teacher training is going wonderfully. I am getting more and more confident as the days go by. I'm excited to learn so many more great things.
Tomorrow is a new day. We shall see what happens. But, what I do know is the kind of person I am, and the kind of person I am going to be from this day forward. I can't change anyone and I can no longer do everything for everyone. I am putting myself first and allowing myself and my work to grow.
Om Shanti Shanti Shanti
