Things are Looking Up for Me

Let's start off with a sigh for the Pistons... I really thought they had it!!!

So this morning I woke up at 7:00 a.m. to prepare for my job interview with the principals and superintendants of Camden, New Jersey. I was stressed b/c I did not know anything about the District, was not sure what they would ask, and did not feel prepared. Then I arrive there and my interviewers are late. So I began chatting with some of the other people interviewing for the same jobs and we are laughing, joking, exchanging useful information to help out with the interview, etc. The whole time I am thinking "How great this feels... no worries, thoughts, or anxieties... Just much needed conversing and relaxing.

Finally, the interviewers arrive thirty to forty-five minutes late (sigh... they can do this because they have pull and power in the educational arena of Camden... and besides, things happen). I enter the interview and behold-- I had the best interview of my life. I was relaxed, charismatic, attentive, creative in my responses, confident, etc. I enjoyed that period of time within that short period of space immensly. After the interview, they said that they were impressed with me and that I was highly qualified to teach in Camden.

Things are starting to look up for me. I am beginning to see my place in God's plan for my life. It will be tough but I feel like everything is beginning to come into place. Yesterday, I was in a sour mood; I guess I was experiencing separation anxiety or something. But now, I can feel within my spirit that things are looking up for me. I know it will get tougher; but anything worth having never comes easy. My complaints of yesterday have been replaced with faith in tomorrow, or faith in the next hour, minute, and second.

I CAN DO THIS!!!!!!!!!!!
