It’s listening to someone who’s actually excited about the work they do.
That’s the root.
So if I listen to her recap her day, listening to her building connections with high risk youth..
It hurts.
It hurts when I see people happy about what they do.
Because that’s not the world I was told about.
I was taught that it’s a grind and it sucks the life out of you, so you should be drunk every day and abuse your stepchildren.
Because it’s their fault that your life sucks.
Then you pass on that outlook and you spread bitterness like a virus.
