Rejuvenated by teaching

Just grateful! Something stressful was going on earlier today (unrelated to SM) and after teaching I realized all the stress was gone and I was just rejuvenated, not to mention the progress my students had made. Being refreshed in the process of teaching has been my repeated experience again and again, in spite of the various commitments and occasional challenges! Until 2 years ago I was a full-time computer programmer and in that profession it was very difficult to feel so enthusiastic in my work (though I tried). So happy to be doing something I really love now, and the joy of seeing my students enjoy it too!

Me too 🙂 I had to give up working in the legal profession. I had a breakdown from the stress. Now I have a ‘job’ that doesn’t even feel like work!

Even when I feel tired at the end of a teaching day I’m all jazzed up in the best of ways. Blessed are we who love what we do and get to do what we love!

Happens to me all the time!

I have noticed the same thing! Not teaching at the moment, and missing that buzz.
