Slightly crazy writer and passionate educator for those who struggle
I wonder how long I have left in me
To be on the go
To talk constantly
To put myself out there
Out of my comfort zone
Constantly forcing myself to grow
Constantly forcing a challenge.
I wonder how long
I can keep going
How long
How many more years
How many more job descriptions
I wonder how long
Til what I do is enough
It’s never “enough” but the day will come when you’ve had “enough”, and decide to retire. For me it was summer of 2010. I’d questioned my decision to keep teaching for a number of years; I even left one institution in 2002 and thought I’d never go back, but by 2004 I was teaching at another college). I still miss the “good” parts about teaching but the time had finally come to put myself first. Trust me – you’ll know when its time for you!
