Recently I was asked why I like working with adolescents. “I want to help kid’s live happy and fulfilled lives” I replied. I believe when a child grows up in a stressful environment their brain develops in such a way that happiness becomes elusive; like in my case.
Last night I was talking with my 1st Sgt. and he was thanking me for dinner and all the advice I give him. I laughed and said that with my advice and $4.86 he could get a latte at Starbucks. He went on to say that he often thinks of me during the day when making decisions asking himself what I would do in his place. I told him I was flattered and said "kind of like WWDD or What Would D Do?"
I am pretty happy today. I wonder if it has anything to do with my making a difference in the life of a child?

Glad you're having another good day. I hope you have a great weekend! :)
What a positive sound to your post.
I think that any time we do something meaningful for someone else it definitely contributes to feeling good inside.
Keep on Sir.
