I had a dream this morning. I dreamed I was back visiting Freed-Hardeman like before. I think I was checking out the campus because I was interested in getting my master’s degree in Bible with an emphasis in Christian counseling. Intriguing. For a while there I had really thought about going back to school to get my masters. I know I could do it. Whether or not it’d be worth it is another story. Being an ISFJ personality my nature is to be a nurturer, to have a strong desire to help others who are downtrodden. However my skills and abilities point more to computers rather than ministry.
Can a person who might actually need counseling himself get a degree in counseling? If I were to go back to school to Freed, I’d have to find a place to live (most likely the dorms) and have to deal with all the noise that goes on with the dorms. I never really got all that stressed out at school. Always did my work. Always tried to make A’s. I feel pretty sure I could do whatever it takes to get my masters. Whether or not I would use it in the job market is up for debate.
