Well, so much for keeping this updated regularly. I told myself that when I got back from the States, I would try to put something up everyday. Two months later, and this is my first post. I guess maybe I'm not really the blogging type, I could never keep a journal very well either.
It has been an interesting couple of months. I feel at times like I'm spinning my wheels frantically, trying to stay busy, but not going anywhere. I've been here for almost a 15 months, and to be honest, am not sure what I have accomplished in that time. And yet at other times, I feel that I'm making a great difference in peoples lives. When one of the teens asks a good question or I can see that a connection has been made, I realise maybe that never would have happened. I don't think is because I'm doing anything spectacular, I just happen to be the right person at the right place.
There has been alot of time spent in reflection lately as well. I'll be leaving in 10 months, but to what? Likely back to university for prosthetics certification, but that's only if I get accepted. Maybe into the engineering field, but with the current job market (here and in the US), how smooth will that be?
*Disclaimer: To anyone reading this, I don't want you to think that I'm depressed about the work here or burned out. I'm just musing about what has been on my mind lately.
I'm not moving on...
