Let Me Do My Job

I’m taking a huge risk and it’s sad. I am taking a risk for saying how I really feel.

Today’s society is nothing like the one in which I grew up in. I had morals. I had respect. I lived by rules. Because of this, I am and became the person who I am today.

Things are different today. We, the older generation have to be afraid of what we say and do. The older generation is a lost and forgotten generation. I am talking about the ones who were born in the 60’s and 70’s and younger. Some of us are afraid, like me, who is in fear of losing my job. The job that’s keeping me afloat in this messed up world that we live in today. But should I really be living in fear? What am I at risk of losing? What am I going to gain if I say and do what I feel is in my heart?

The loss of my voice is debilitating. I cannot do the job that my heart yearns for me to do. My job is to make others better. To make others worthy and stronger and self-sufficient. All that is being stripped away from me.

I am a teacher. Let me teach. Let me do the best job I can and have faith in me that I will give others a chance to be successful in life. But how am I supposed to do that if you take away everything I believe in that I need to pass on to generations to come?

It’s a sad society that we live in today. It’s sad that we have to be afraid to discipline, give guidance, and instill morals to those who need it the most.

There is Peace in Silence

People say, ” you can never be in complete silence because of the noises that are going on around you.” There is some truth to that but you can silence your mind and tune those noises out. The noises go way beyond the audio you hear. They are a derivative of its source. Life that goes on around us is the creator of the noises we hear. Noises affect our mental psyche. It alters our thinking, behaviors, and overall our stability in life. The stillness you get from silence creates the peace inside you.

Worrying is one source of what makes up the chatter and noises that consume your thoughts. It can be debilitating at times. If you can learn to worry less about the things you have no control of, it’s only then that you’ll see that the noises in your mind start to fade. Quieting your mind isn’t easy. Anxious feelings will consume you at first but if you can surrender those feelings of anxiousness and worry, the silence will become peaceful.

That is when the healing begins.

Words Hurt

It’s amazing how you can tell what a person is all about just by hearing their choice of words come out of their mouth. It could very well be that they don’t think about what they’re saying before they say it, or their true intentions are to throw that dig at you because they’re unhappy with themselves and even though they pretend to be okay, they’re not.

But, that’s no excuse. What’s the saying….”You can’t unring a bell.” Once you say it, it can’t be taken back. Those words will be forever etched into someones brain and all though you may think nothing of it, those words will have lasting consequences. Hurtful words or comments will never be forgotten.

You might think that the person you said those words too aren’t smart enough or capable of realizing what was said, that’s not the case. They’re just collectively storing everything in their thoughts, taking it in, and realizing that the person who says those things, lack intelligence and compassion. No matter how hard they try to make people believe that they are a good person, inside they are struggling and just don’t know how to follow through.

Pay no mind. The lesson learned is that you gain even more respect for yourself knowing that you aren’t like them. You are truly a good hearted individual.

You’re life might not reflect all the hard work, understanding, and compassion you give to others, but if you dig deep, it does. The satisfaction you have within because of being a good soul is what keeps you happy and true to the only person that counts, and that is yourself. That’s all that matters.
