Changing Life Gears
Because I hate comfort and familiarity, I am changing my life around again.
Actually, that’s not entirely true. I’m changing my life to get back to things that are more familiar and comforting. And by that, I mean I’m going back to school!
I will be joining the Adams State College Counselor Education Program(check it out). I will be going for the community counseling specialization. The past few months after the death of my mother have put a number of things into perspective. One of those was the clear realization that I pursued a BA in Psychology for a reason. It helps that my academic record in that regard is pretty well flawless, so I also clearly showed aptitude for it. To do this I will be moving back to Colorado.
One of the other things that I realized was that I am happiest when helping people. I loved being a college advisor. My time spent in Japan as a teacher was beyond compare (although I’ll write more about this later). Those things being true, I should most likely be on a path to help people. I haven’t been on that path for awhile now.
To make no mistake, my time in Boston has been great. I came out here with good friends, met a lot of great people, and work for a company that is made of amazing people. However, my job has taken is a direction very different from the way I should be going.
I could list the people that helped get me back on track, but they know who they are. Thank you, I can be a stubborn bull to goad back onto a trail, but I’ll be sure to run fast and hard now that I’m back on it again.
