So Many Things Are Going On!

Some exciting, some not so exciting- and since one of those "not so exciting" things was getting a take home midterm handed to me about an hour ago, I have decided to blog about one of the "exciting" things.....my "job".

I wouldn't actually define it as a "job" but more of a formative experience that pays. I on campus for Campus Ministry as the Graduate Student Intern for Faith Development and Catechesis, (breath, wew-glad I don't have to say the title out loud very often).

In the spirit of staying positive and keeping it readable, I'm only going to list only awesome things about my job right now, because I need to be a little positive at the moment:

1. I work with amazingly intelligent, spiritual, and compassionate people. They have wonderful things to share- and they share them in a beautiful way.

2. These people help me to GROW.

3. I feel supported.

4. I am learning about myself.

5. There are people who know God and share their image of God with me.

6. This department works really hard for really GOOD reasons.

7. There is always food at work (and a bowl full of candy on the way to my office) and there are always people to eat it with.

8. I feel challenged to do good.

9. I am able to share my image of God freely, without judgement.

10. I am learning.

11. I get to work with programs that are really cool (for lack of a better term).

12. I am reminded of my own life's journey when I go to Campus Ministry, walk into Gries, and walk around campus.

13. People notice things (Fr. Pat) and help me to be more aware.

14. I get to start a new program in Gries that I'm STOKED about. Stay posted- I will share more.
Little hint: It involves comfortable clothes, appreciation of our ability to be active (get up get up put the body in motion), positivity, encouragement, and cura personalis, prayer, and good people. :)

Welp, that little list sure did help me to fee better about my day.

Feeling energized by my job but still not excited about starting this midterm....
