Semester DONE!

I am finished the semester! In the last four weeks, since Thanksgiving week, I have produced over 300 pages of papers and projects! That doesn't count the duplication or borrowing (with permission) that I did from one unit plan to another!

It feels good to be finished.

What was amazing to me is that I realized, as exhausted as I was, that I was still filled with joy, still full of enthusiasm, still working in bliss.

Does that mean I am where I am meant to be, at least for now? Perhaps Pema Chodron says it best:

If we learn to open our hearts, anyone, including the people who drive us crazy, can be our teacher.
