Reconnecting with Teaching and Art: My Absence Explained

Hello, dear readers! It's been a while, hasn't it? If you've been wondering where I've been and why the blog has been rather silent lately, I'm here to shed some light on my recent absence. Summer break came and went, and with it, I embarked on new adventures, returning to teaching and rekindling my passion for art. Let's catch up on what's been happening in my life during this time away.

As the school bells chimed and the excitement of a new academic year filled the air, I found myself back in the classroom. Teaching has always been a big part of my life, and it's a calling I cherish. The summer break provided a much-needed rejuvenation period, allowing me to return to my students with fresh ideas, renewed energy, and a strong commitment to their education. Nurturing young minds is both a privilege and a responsibility, and I'm excited to see my students grow and learn.

Teaching is a demanding profession, and the transition from the leisurely pace of summer to the hustle and bustle of the school year was quite a change. Lesson planning, grading, meetings, and all the responsibilities that come with teaching kept me on my toes. While it's incredibly rewarding, it left me with little time and energy to maintain my blog. I'm sure many of you can relate to how a demanding job can sometimes take over your life.



Amidst the busy days of teaching, I found solace and inspiration in my art. Painting has always been a source of creative expression and relaxation for me, and I decided to return to my art lessons. It was a conscious choice to make time for something that brings me so much joy. Whether it was an evening spent with my canvas and brushes or a weekend retreat to the countryside to paint en plein air, art has been a therapeutic escape from the demands of the everyday.

Over these past few months, I've been painting more than ever before. My art has been a reflection of the world around me, capturing the beauty of nature, the emotions of my students, and the experiences of life. The act of creating something beautiful with my own hands has been something incredible, and it's been wonderful to see my artistic skills grow and evolve.

As I continue to balance teaching and my passion for art, I hope to share more of my experiences and creations with you. While I may not be as active as I once was on this blog, I'm committed to finding a harmonious balance between my various pursuits. After all, life is a series of chapters, and I'm eager to see where this one leads.

Thank you for your patience during my absence. It's great to be back, sharing my journey of teaching and art with you. As the pages of this blog turn, I'm excited to bring you along on this adventure, exploring the beauty of education and the world of art. Let's keep the conversation going, and I look forward to reconnecting with all of you in the comments. Until next time!
