What I Needed

I have been trying to keep teaching away from this blog. However, I realized the title of this blog is still "Of Love, Life, Writing and Everything in Between." Whether I like it or not, teaching is all of the above. It is currently the thing I love the most about my life. It currently is my life. I live, sleep and breathe it every day. Even when I am not in the classroom I am thinking about it or talking about it. I am writing about it every day on my other blog and in reflections I am doing for my field supervisor. I am sure it is in all of my conversations, my facebook statuses and every other aspect of my life. When something permeates your being so completely it is hard to keep it out of anything. Teaching has been everything I hoped for and more. It has made me happy again. It is truly the most fun thing I have ever done. I am more exhausted than ever, I am more uncertain about everything I am doing every day and yet I am sure that this is what I want to do for the rest of my life. I am so happy that I didn't let things going on in my love life derail me. I am so glad that I didn't take time to back away from school like I had thought about doing. This is what I needed.
