I found this online and couldn't wait to share it.
I've been in such a happy place lately. Really, I've been ridiculously happy.
I've started a volunteer position at a veterinary clinic and have been loving every second of it.
Dental cleaning? Love it.
Routine exams? Love it.
Elderly pet problem visits? Love it.
Cyst biopsy? Love it.
The vets and vet techs where I'm volunteering are so incredibly knowledgeable and compassionate. They are such an inspiration to me. I now know the important application of all the science and math courses that I'm about to start. I'm also realizing how important my moral compass is - and thankful to have realized that legal work was making me lose my moral compass. I'm happy to have found it again.
I'm also about to move in two weeks. And start classes at a new school at the same time. Stressful? Yes... but absolutely worth it.
When I made the decision to leave law school, I knew that there would be some stressful situations that came along with that choice. But, I have to say, so far I've been loving life. I'm thriving on the chaos and uncertainty. Even though I'm back at home in America, living with such ambiguity and new circumstances has made me feel like I'm still traveling. I want to keep that feeling going for as long as possible.
Confession: I blow-dried my hair for the second time since being back. Admittedly, I feel more confident with my frizzy, naturally dried hair than I do after taking half an hour to straighten and fix it just so.
