Hey!! How are you all? I haven't been around for a while...
It's been over a year now since I've came back home from the great wide world where I went to see God at work and what can I say - things do change!
From traveling the world, helping the poor, hanging out with artsy weirdo missionaries all day long I came back to be a teacher (because for some reason or other I felt that that is what God wants me to do.
Wait...What??? A teacher? A language teacher?? How utterly boring!
Well, yes.
The adventures has changed. They are a bit mundane, bit earthly if you wish. My day-to-day life consists of lesson planning, grammar explaining, children hugging, in-the-staffroom-with-other-teachers talking... Yes, it sometimes feels unexciting, but mostly, it's really great!
How is it, that such commonplace job as teaching can be great? Because every day I follow the same God I followed accross the ocean and he makes my mundane as rad as I can wish for. And sometimes even more.
I don't think I've ever laughed as hard as during the one year of teaching, I don't think I've ever felt more loved. I don't think I've ever laughed at myself more either though. I got more chances to share my faith with students than I thought was possible, I tested my limits, I made amazing friends. I've got to witness stories of others, I've seen them grow and I've seen them learn.
Aaaaaand why do I feel the urge to share this with the world via blog?
well, I did survive one year of teaching!!!
And I think that maybe I can do a better job of blogging now than a year ago strengthen by the experience. And because now all those people that I fail to keep in touch can see that I am still alive. Also because I do want to keep a record of my greatly mundane adventures and I suck in journaling.
It is that easy.
So good night for now
See you soon!
