My circle of life keeps changing

My life now consists of books, tuition, part-time work shifts, and classes although it isn’t just the simple circle that it seems.

The books involve reading, learning, and studying that fill up much of my brain and physical time and leaves me exhausted.

Tuition is hard-earned money from those part-time work shifts. And the work shifts aren’t just simple to-do lists. They involve working with people who sometimes hurt my feelings and send me home with an emotional mind frame different than the one in which I began my work shift.

Enrolling in classes is often fraught with difficulties. When I finally do get into them, almost always, they aren’t my cup of tea.

All of these things began to circulate in my life once I turned 18, so don’t mind me if I sometimes feel a bit overwhelmed.

However, there is emotional confrontation that totally overcomes every other feeling and knocks my whole circle out of shape.

Whether in the workplace or at school, if someone says something that’s upsetting, I must learn to grow a thicker skin.

I say this because I have yet to grow a thick enough layer of skin to avoid allowing these things to ruin my day.

Being a waitress, I encounter all sorts of people and I have found that not everyone cares to like me. This is tough for me to understand because I do try to do my best with everything I do.

My emotions sometimes lead me to occasionally make a mistake or two that I most likely wouldn’t have made otherwise.

As I get older and more experienced in all of these minor areas, I know that I will grow that thicker skin.

This circulation I am speaking of is obviously my word choice regarding the condition of my life.

Once I get older, the things that consume my life’s circle will no longer consist of college books, but more likely reading all sorts of books including, of course, the Bible.

As of this moment, I do love my life, but I am more than ready for some things in my circle to change.
