What a week. There is always a lot of excitement in my house the fews days before back to school. This year I only had one going back but it still generated a lot of energy.
I was talking to a fellow student in the change room last week and she was telling me what she had to do to get ready for school. Her nervousness came shining through as she spoke. This in turn brought back a lot of similar feeling in me. I thought about this conversation over the next few days and it was obvious that no matter how old you are you are still waiting for the "light bulb" to go off and all at once you know what you were meant to do for the rest of your life. The thing you would be great at and would love so much you would jump out of bed biting at the bit to go to work. I know how unrealistic this is but it took me fifty years to figure it out. I know sometimes things are put in front of you and you have to have the courage to take the opportunity . You have to trust your instincts and hope you are making the right decision .
The one thing I was able to take away from this encounter was no matter what your age people are very similar inside. Your life may get more complicated as you age but you are always that same person inside . Maybe I have just discovered a small way to bridge the generation gap
