What does it make when you attend a first year class with students much younger than you are? it is simply fun and a bit challenging.I used to be a student few years ago,and somehow things went quite different than it was supposed to,and I found myself in the job market with a salary and a deep wish to go back to study as a full time student.
It is something that one can only understand after years of separation.It is just like two lovers who used to love each other,but after years they find that they were not meant to end up together.So,the lover decided to go for a trip to restore himself and hopefully gain a new love.Although he tried,he could not find the light in this new dark and decided to go back to his first love but with a new view of things...he knew, from the start, that he went away for a while to return and get closer to his love.
Same for me,I knew that I had to be back...without any shame or feelings of regression.Thus,I made my decision and the Providence made the rest.Now I am with more than one hundred student in the English section,most of them are much younger than myself and still under their twenties.
I am older than them,but when I am with them it doesn't make that much of a difference and I feel like I am in their age,I feel that my mechanism of judgement is less severe and more tolerant.I think,also,that I can understand them better and I feel rather surprised how we are associated in place and different in time conception.It simply a magical and continuous go and fro between the present and the past.
It is obvious for me that being with those young boys and girls is uncovering the dug will in my spirit and making it alive again.On the other hand,I feel like I need to take the challenge to be there when they think I can add something to their lives in order to optimize their journey's time towards success and happiness.
