...To be continued?

Sometimes I wonder if life picks me up on my tangents and then tosses me with the wind and lets me float for a while before that tangent is to be continued. 
Do you get what I am saying?
 I feel like for the last little while, I have been running on all sorts of tangents. 
But I do know that one thing really is constant in my life. 
Besides the gospel, I have the knowledge that I will become a teacher and I will be able to make a difference in peoples lives. 
It has been a treacherous road to finally get to the point that I will be able to teach, but it has made me a stronger person. It has helped me to know what I want to do. 
It has stretched me to become the person I need to be. It has shown me that I have more talents than the ones apparent to the naked eye. 
When I look at myself now, I am able to see someone who has persevered and worked through the tough times. I see someone who is capable and has withstood the nay-sayers. 
And believe you me, there are more of those here than you would think. 
I have grown in my capacity to deal with others and my capacity to understand others. 
I have loved my field of study and hated it at the same time. 
I have grown to realize that many good things come with patience. 
I have also realized that you don't and shouldn't put up with being walked over. 
I was never used to this because of the way I was growing up and the different experiences I have had in my life. 
But there were some very big experiences that reminded me up here at school that I am not liked by everyone. 
And I am okay with this fact. 
As I am coming to the end of my music classes, I am beginning to realize that this was a good run. 
I had fun for the most part. 
I did struggle through a lot of my courses but I did it. 
Who doesn't struggle through their college courses.
