Do you relish getting up every day to meet a new challenge at work? Come in contact with good people?
Or is work a drag? A pain in the...? A heartache? A twisted nightmare? Boring?
Today, my second day back teaching preschool after a wonderful summer vacation, I was kicked, spit at, dealt with a screaming ear piercing temper tantrum, a child who cried the entire time she was there, one who gagged as if to vomit because she was crying so hard, and two children who wet their pants. And yet, I wouldn't give up my job for any other on the face of the earth! I absolutely adore it! Because I know that after a couple more times back at school, these children will come to trust us (the teachers) and the environment we provide for them. And I'll spend the rest of the year as if I'm in the middle of a season long series of Art Linkletter's, "Children Say the Darndest Things."
How about you? Do you like going into work everyday?
