I'm moving! Wrote a song about it. Want to hear it? Here it goes....
With props to Will Smith and "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air"(Yes, I really am this much of a geek)
Now this is the story all about how
My life got flipped, turned upside down
Let me tell you a story that'll make you shiver
The story an island girl who's moving to Powell River!
In west British Columbia born and raised
Victoria, BC where I spent most of my days
Chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool
When suddenly God was all "Get thee to school!"
So after five years on the scholarly tip
I got my education-now I'm taking a trip
My "Dangerous Minds" vision of teaching in the ghetto
is being put on hold- guess this other plan is better(?)
Apparently I'm not needed in the inner city of Victoria
I'll skip past the details cuz I don't wanna bore ya
But Powell River Christian School gave me a call
wondering if I'd come teach in the fall
Christian kids? I don't think so... that's not in my plan
What could I give them that they don't already have?
The school kept pursuing; they sweetened the deal
I told them, "I'll consider it despite the way I feel..."
Then I took a little trip and was happy to see
Some genuine peeps with authenticity
Philosophies, attitude, heart, and vision
Caused me to give my own plan a revision
Changes in my housing situation, my job, and my vacation
all coinciding with the timing of this potential relocation!
Scriptures and witnesses jumping on board
caused me to consider that this could be the Lord
So looks like I'm doing it- my objections revoked
Don't have a home yet but I'm all stoked
God's got my back; He's gonna deliver
And I'll be the newest teacher in a town called Powell River
