I just received a very unexpected bit of news this past week. A "blessing" from above which has re-kindled my passion for education and professional development.
Out of the blue, I have been given the opportunity to lead a Staff Development Workshop for Elementary Literacy Educators in northwest Iowa!
This is a dream that, two years ago, I placed in my "someday" box, shut the lid and walked away from. Not because I wanted to, but because a future that was promised to me by someone else was quickly taken away without explanation. Key issue here: a future someone else was promising, not one I was creating myself.
Since that time, what I have realized is that all along I could have made it all happen. All I needed to do was believe, keep my priorities straight, not stress, breathe, family first.....and jump. And no regrets.
So....this is where I stand. Ready to give it everything I've got. Excited about where the path will take me, even if it is only for a moment. I get a shot at making a difference again in the lives of educators. And, by doing that, making a difference in the lives of many children, this being the most important reason of all. I am thrilled, and so excited to start!!
The author of this article is wonderful. I like it very much
