A few days when I joined and wrote my very first blog, I was pleasantly surprised by the responses I got here... kind ones and even a couple of “tough loving” ones. I appreciate all the feedback.
I picked myself up and drew from the strength within, realized what I have overcome in the past, and started moving again.
I wrote another blog where I shared that I felt better, had started exercising again and was expecting more positive changes. The very next day, I had a fever and bad throat again - unbelievable. it is as if I am a punching bag... But I realized that my immune system was bad and worked on improving it. I felt much better today and went about the normal errands.
Today, I also got word from Teach from America - I have a phone interview tomorrow. I have prepared for it and will do a quick review in the morning. I’m taking a deep breath because I finally realized that I should get back into teaching - having taught in Malaysia for about 17 years and a year here in Atlanta. It gave me a great sense of self satisfaction as I helped to change lives and helped to mold future leaders. I still keep in touch with my students. I am excited.
Today was also a little different for me as I went shopping with my 17 year old son - I do this often with my 19 year old daughter though. Being a single parent, and both mum and dad, has been difficult, but it hasd made me strong. I am thankful also because my faith has helped me a great deal. Being with my son today was good and fun! We got a chance to bond and talk.
I will keep you updated. To those who responded to me, thank you , from the heart. It is in these little acts of kindness, that we touch lives. In touching one life, we ultimately touch other lives around that one person. Be blessed!!
Good for you - you sound very upbeat and very positive.
Fingers crossed for the interview for you
I hope the interview goes well and I hope you are feeling better too!
I am so happy for you that you had quality time to enjoy with your teenage son! No matter how old our kids become, it is so important to spend time together.
Keep us updated on how the interview went and if you get back into teaching!
Keep on keeping on!
Warmly,
Dana
I enjoy hanging out with my kids too. My 16 yo son is not quite ready to hang around with only me,although he does help at store,laundry-heavy stuff. We do both love Target though.
