Being a Social Worker Means...

You will never be bored.
You will always be frusturated.
You will be surrounded by challenges.
So much to do and so little time.
You will carry immense responsibility
and very little authority.
You will step into people's lives
and you will make a difference.
Some will bless you
Some will curse you.
You will see people at their worst~
and their best.
You will never cease to be amazed
at people's capacity for
love, courage, and endurance.
You will see life begin~and end.
You will experience resounding triumphs
and devastating failures.
You will cry a lot.
You will laugh a lot.
You will know what it is to be human
and to be humane.
