The last 5 months of my job as a certified peer specialist has been very challenging. It has opened my eyes to the various challenges that people are facing and I'm finding that there is a fine line between being empathetic and cold-hearted.
I've taken 2 small weekend trips that weren't what I expected. The first was to Connecticut to see an old friend that ended up costing about twice than I expected and I saw just how much of an alcoholic he was. The other trip this past weekend to Atlantic City to see Lauryn Hill was very uninspiring. She showcased a real talent with changing the sound to her classics but there was an obvious disconnection with the crowd.
I am also in school full time and now have a better grasp at time management. Thank the heavens for a monthly planner.
