March 7, 2018, Prescott-
Today was a day of surprises. Both of my co-workers called in sick. The three peer tutors rose to the occasion, leaving their cell phones on silent, and devoting themselves entirely to their charges. I was entrusted with the guidance of the two substitutes. The day was, despite the unsettled beginning, remarkably smooth.
I was expecting a marathon evening meeting, with a full agenda and intense, prolonged discussion. The chair of the meeting wisely moved everything along, and we actually ended an hour early.
There are rewards that come with steadfastness, staying the course, in time of the unexpected and knowing, deep inside, that this, too, shall pass and that the world just keeps on its path.
Loved this, Gary.
