Euphoria
"Bri, I think you have a very promising teaching career ahead of you. Ever consider going into special ed? You seem to be very good at it."
Words cannot describe how those three sentences made me feel. My stomach lurched, my face got hot, and my jaw dropped. After a few seconds of shocked silence, I smiled at him and said "Thanks, I hope I'll be a good teacher someday."
Mother of Pearl, talk about the understatement of the year right there. I'll die a happy woman if I can someday consider myself a truly good teacher. I honestly will. So when someone tells me they think I have what it takes, I get rather giddy.
Special ed, eh? I love how the pathway of my life keeps twisting and turning, around new corners that I never in a million years would have thought existed. I think I like this new one.
