Something is definitely different about school this year. Perhaps because its not the first time round I’m doing it, though it must be said that it is merely the second time, I seem a lot more confident. Looks like the learning curve is logarithmic, so you learn and change your style the most over the first few years. Is that why they expect us to move around often?
These days, I feel like my seat is on fire, I can’t sit down for long periods working on stuff any more.
I spoke to a colleague about it, and borrowed the phrase “existential angst”. What’s this all about? What are we doing all this for? No wonder our generation moves around, changing jobs and careers often. We can’t sit still. Not twenty times for us, once or twice is ample. Maybe compared to the depths of last year and the first 2 weeks of school, the last two weeks have been more well-paced, allowing more time (and energy) to even think about such things.
Went back DHS last friday, had a good chat with some of the guys. They’re clearly not as knowledgeable about stuff as I had assumed. I think I make some wrong assumptions. Come to think of it, how would they know all that stuff?
Sponsor sessions are going ok, had a crap session last sun, had a good one this. Acknowledge that it is my cross to bear and must kiss the leper.
Accept hardships as the pathway to peace.
