the system broken, the schools closed, the prison's open we ain't got nothing to lose

i can honestly say that i have never been more satisfied w. my life and my self. i am having an absolute blast in life and i am so excited and grateful for what the future might bring.

i can feel myself growing and learning--both inside and outside of the classroom. and, i wonder if i will ever be able to give up learning. i don't think so. it has been the single thing that has driven me the most within my lifetime. and i appreciate that. i have also met such a wonderful set of people throughout my latest learning pursuits. i am so appreciative  of them. i have also had he pleasure of meeting a lot of new people lately. they have been contributing to my life significantly even if they aren't aware of it yet.

i am learning that i am capable in so many other ways than i ever really believed possible. i'm not sure if you know how incredible that feeling is, but it is truly amazing. my goal is to try to help other people to feel that way  as well.

i found the start of a bucket list i had made awhile ago.one of the goals was to have helped more people than i have hurt. that sort of drives me to try to be good to the people that are in my life. i want to do things that solidify and reinforce everything that makes them wonderful. b/c they deserve it.

i passed comprehensive exams and i am so relieved to have them out of the way. i got a low pass in methods which i expected. but, i got a high pass w. distinction in theory. i was told that it was one of the best exams the committee had ever read. that makes me feel good. it makes me feel that the studying and work i have put into my education career have paid me back somehow. i feel satisfied in so many ways.

life is really great. the fall always makes me feel my absolute best. and even though winter will be coming soon, i am content to spend the days holed up in my apartment with some tea and a candle burning. i will be content to spend my time with the ones that i love so dearly.

also, i have a two trips to look forward to. i am going to NOLA in december to rehab homes. and i may present at a conference in FL in february. it will be a good year. it has been a good year. i am convinced that 24 will be my favorite so far.

i hope all feels well with you and that you are content and satisfied in your life too. i hope the best for you.

sweeter dreams.
