Rewarding aspect of my job
Today one of the girls that I counsel handed me a note out of the blue. Usually these notes are like "I want to die" or are about something that's bothering them. It was folded in a heart, and I had to question the "appropriateness" of the content as it would be weird to get a love note from a teenage girl. I opened it anyway, and was delighted to find a letter of appreciation. I was so touched by it and made me feel good about doing my job.

Always amazing and helpful.
As fun, funny, true as you can.
Put down with confidence with what's right to you!
Plus a joy to be around with you working on the floor.
As you are loyal and you need no crown, as you are confident.
You are one in a zillion, just for all you do.
Most amazing in my book of records.
As I would, when I grow up just like you.
The grammar is a bit off and doesn't make complete sense, but a lot of the teens I work with can't spell or write properly anyway. I hope she doesn't develop a crush on me. Jesus. hahah
