I feel like I am finally settling down and finding meaning
in my work. I am the self-designated librarian at my school. There are fourteen
classes who each have an assigned library time. With the standard one students
we sing the alphabet, do our numbers, colors, shapes, and other fun things like
that. Although they understand approximately ten percent of what I say, their
smiles and enthusiasm are priceless and motivating to me. With the older grades
I have them read to me in English, which can be like pulling teeth, but in my
mind I am helping the students unlock a larger world and I love it. Who knows
that they are thinking, but it is probably not quite the enlightenment that I
have in mind. However, I think we are capable of creating our own reality and
that is the reality I have created for myself and since it does not appear to
be harming anyone I will continue to believe that.
Just when I feel like I am getting comfortable something
throws me for a loop like the electricity going out, I wipe out while doing
yoga (I did not realize that was possible, but now I have the bruises to show
that it is), or my shoe breaks in the middle of the day at work. Life in
Moshana is a constant roller coaster, but as of now I am enjoying the ride.
