A Mentor’s Goodbye

August 24, 2015 Posted by: Laura Sears

I've said many goodbyes over the past few years. As a young professional just breaking into the conservation field, I've held many temporary positions. I've seen many new places, met new people and had new experiences. Everyone is always a little nervous, a little unsure, when something new begins. It may take time, but in every group I've been a part of, from college to the present, we all become used to each other and find a way to work as a cohesive whole. Then, as is the nature of seasonal work, the experience ends, the internship is over, the job is done, and it is time to move on. These moments are always bitter sweet. We've had so much fun together, but now it's time to go our separate ways, to take the next steps in our respective journeys.

The 2015 George Perkins Marsh Interns are no different. As the mentor, I've had the distinct privilege to watch as the interns under my care tried many new things, and succeeded. They've all grown so much in such a short amount of time. Whether they realize it or not, they have begun to cultivate skills that will carry them through their entire professional life. I feel like a mother bird that has just watched her chicks hop out of the nest and fly away. They are all going on to continue their education and look for more internships that will help them hone the skills they need to follow their dreams. I too am looking forward to my next job as a Teacher/Naturalist at Echo Hill Outdoor School. Yet another temporary position, where I will be assisting with the educational programming in an effort to work my way up to a full time Environmental Educator. It is sometimes frustrating to be constantly moving around, to constantly have to deal with endings, but as Kia likes to say, "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."\\n\\nThanks for a fantastic summer everyone! I wish you the best of luck in all that you do!\\n\",\"dsl_styleslices\":[{\"stsl_type\":\"autogen\",\"stsl_styles\":[]},{\"stsl_type\":\"cell\",\"stsl_styles\":[]},{\"stsl_type\":\"comment\",\"stsl_styles\":[{\"cs_cids\":{\"cv\":{\"op\":\"set\",\"opValue\":[]}}}]},{\"stsl_type\":\"date_time\",\"stsl_styles\":[]},{\"stsl_type\":\"document\",\"stsl_leading\":{\"ds_b\":{\"bg_c\":null},\"ds_fi\":null,\"ds_hi\":null,\"ds_fpfi\":null,\"ds_fphi\":null,\"ds_ufphf\":false,\"ds_pnsi\":1,\"ds_mb\":72,\"ds_ml\":72,\"ds_mr\":72,\"ds_mt\":72,\"ds_ph\":792,\"ds_pw\":612},\"stsl_leadingType\":\"document\",\"stsl_styles\":[]},{\"stsl_type\":\"equation\",\"stsl_styles\":[]},{\"stsl_type\":\"equation_function\",\"stsl_styles\":[]},{\"stsl_type\":\"footnote\",\"stsl_styles\":[]},{\"stsl_type\":\"headings\",\"stsl_styles\":[]},{\"stsl_type\":\"horizontal_rule\",\"stsl_styles\":[]},{\"stsl_type\":\"import_warnings\",\"stsl_styles\":[{\"iws_iwids\":{\"cv\":{\"op\":\"set\",\"opValue\":[]}}}]},{\"stsl_type\":\"language\",\"stsl_trailing\":{\"lgs_l\":\"en\"},\"stsl_trailingType\":\"language\",\"stsl_styles\":[]},{\"stsl_type\":\"link\",\"stsl_styles\":[{\"lnks_link\":null}]},{\"stsl_type\":\"list\",\"stsl_styles\":[null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,{\"ls_nest\":0,\"ls_id\":null,\"ls_ts\":{\"ts_bd\":false,\"ts_fs\":11,\"ts_ff\":\"Arial\",\"ts_it\":false,\"ts_sc\":false,\"ts_st\":false,\"ts_un\":false,\"ts_va\":\"nor\",\"ts_bgc2\":{\"clr_type\":0,\"hclr_color\":null},\"ts_fgc2\":{\"clr_type\":0,\"hclr_color\":\"#000000\"},\"ts_bd_i\":false,\"ts_fs_i\":false,\"ts_ff_i\":false,\"ts_it_i\":false,\"ts_sc_i\":false,\"ts_st_i\":false,\"ts_un_i\":false,\"ts_va_i\":false,\"ts_bgc2_i\":false,\"ts_fgc2_i\":false}},{\"ls_nest\":0,\"ls_id\":null,\"ls_ts\":{\"ts_bd\":false,\"ts_fs\":11,\"ts_ff\":\"Arial\",\"ts_it\":false,\"ts_sc\":false,\"ts_st\":false,\"ts_un\":false,\"ts_va\":\"nor\",\"ts_bgc2\":{\"clr_type\":0,\"hclr_color\":null},\"ts_fgc2\":{\"clr_type\":0,\"hclr_color\":\"#000000\"},\"ts_bd_i\":false,\"ts_fs_i\":false,\"ts_ff_i\":false,\"ts_it_i\":false,\"ts_sc_i\":false,\"ts_st_i\":false,\"ts_un_i\":false,\"ts_va_i\":false,\"ts_bgc2_i\":false,\"ts_fgc2_i\":false}},null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,nul
