Gratitude Journal - Day Seven -

Hello my beloved bloggers!

Happy Sunday. This is today's prompt:

What is something about your work or studies that you appreciate?

This is a very interesting question. I've always loved learning English since I was a child and when the time came to decide what to pursue academically I immediately thought about English. 

In my country English is taught as a Foreign Language and because of this there aren't many university degrees dealing with English culture besides English Language Teaching, Translating and Interpreting. I chose to follow English Teacher Training Course for four years and then I graduated first of my class.

Since that very moment, my love for the profession just deepened and at one point I had the craziest idea of immersing myself in the language so I began to listen to, read, watch and write in English. So much so that I eventually started thinking in the language more than in my own mother tongue - which is Spanish by the way 💜.

Going back to the prompt of the day, I truly believe that what I appreciate most about my work is that I get to teach it to everyone who wants to learn it, I get to speak it with anyone who wants to share a conversation in that language and I get to meet people from all walks of life in the process who are also teaching me a lot of things that I'm so grateful for.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

I remembered a quote just now from Confucius that rings SO true to me:

"Choose a job you love and you'll never have to work a day in your life"
