Exciting Prospects

So, I started training for my volunteer position with a local Pregnancy Crisis Center. I thought the week long training would be kind of boring and maybe just give lots of info into the center and what they do, but NO! And its great! Ya know, I LOVE being a therapist! I love pathology, trying to figure people out, why they make the choices they do and then help them find new ways to think and cope......its a great feeling.....its my thing....and I've really missed it.

Although I won't be working as a full-time therapist.....I'll still be able to hone my craft, help people and feel as though I'm using ALL that schooling! I'm super excited about the possibility of counseling abortion minded, lost, hopeless, fearful, needy, scared women and hope.......selfishly I guess........that I'll get something in return.

Maybe just some fulfillment that being a stay at home mom doesn't always provide. Although, I know my job right now is the most important one on earth and one that I wish more mothers would choose, I see how the pull of exterior desires work to have us look somewhat outside our homes for fulfillment. I am careful to pray, however, that my enjoyment of it will only make me appreciate the fantastic opportunity I have to stay at home and raise my children.
