On Being a Teacher

Why Teaching is My Calling.

If not for a deep love of children,

Wanting for all of them a better world.

Or a better attitude with which to embrace the world they have.

Also, a more confident outlook that that world will someday be more acceptable.

Teaching them every day would be a drudged chore.

But…

Loving them,

Caring that they have and are

All these things

Brings me to them.

The sadness of it is…

They don’t even realize.
