I’m into my 3rd week of the nursing program and work, and let me just say, I am feeling very much alive. From providing a smile to customers even when you don’t feel like it, to reading 11 chapters of repetitive statements in one week, all I can say is that I am stressed to the max. But oddly enough, I am not mad, I am not sad, I am just tired all the time. You could say that I am content. Actually, I’m finally feeling what it feels like to be (somewhat) financially independent, and I am in the forefront of beginning my career. It’s pretty awesome… It’s crazy how stressed I am, but I’m happy about it. The adjustments, I have to admit, are not easy. When I was just starting, I was thinking about quitting already, but I adjusted, and I’m getting used to everything. As you can see, my thoughts are super frazzled. I feel like my priorities are all over the place. But it’s okay, cuz I know I’m going to get them straightened out soon enough. For anyone reading this, pray for me. Pray that I stay healthy, that I keep my eyes focused on what is truly important, and that I keep God in the center of everything I do. Right now, it’s a struggle to get myself disciplined, but I am managing, I am growing, and for that, I am proud.
