At least we can now see the tunnel.
We all started a journey about 4 months ago; some of us with no idea where we were headed. Always having been told to look for the light at the end of the tunnel, I just presumed that getting "accepted" into the program was like entering the tunnel. However, getting into the program is like getting ready to go fishing -- it takes a while to see the lake, after you hook up the boat, find the gear, buy the bait, and drive to the lake.
We have been driving for a while now. The experience of the last three months has been more about getting to the lake (or tunnel, if will), than about fishing, or seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.
Now that I have some idea of where I am (in the tunnel), I am pretty sure that the bright spot ahead is the light at the end of the tunnel. I am looking forward to the next few weeks as I discover the next steps in this process.
I am not an instructor, and am anxious about the "getting my foot in the door" part of the tunnel that lies ahead of me. I look forward to the new discoveries, new direction, and new opportunities ahead.
