i want to teach.
i want to teach. the more i think about it, the more i realize that i desire to teach. making films are a lot of fun, and i would still like to work on them in free time, but what i really want to do is teach. possibly high school. programing, physics, math, whatever. maybe i should look to do some tutoring or something in the meantime, before i get my degree.
there are days where you make decisions with wide ramifications. yesterday was such a day. i will be vague on the details, rightly so, as some are not meant to be shared. yesterday i was presented with a choice. from the outside, it was a good thing to do. it was just what i desired, and a year ago i would have jumped at the chance. but things are different now. yesterday i spent a lot of time thinking about this decision. it really turned my head inside out. how could i pass up such a chance? but even without much thought, i knew what was right. i am content in my head about the decision and feel confirmed in my spirit. this morning, on the way to work i was hit with some of the ramifications. i have made poor decisions in the past about similar things, and i realized now the freedom i can walk in. while it was what i desire on the surface, it is not what i long for. i know it is not what God has for me.
listening now to pete yorn, musicforthemorningafter. i love it. good writing with a melancholy mood.
