I struggle to find any inspiration at all in the life I lead every day, and the only thing it ever boils down to is the same thing: It's all about the students. <br /><br />It's nice to know that there are other people out there who understand what I am going through. I only wish there was something that we as teachers, who are so often under-appreciated for the commitments we make, could do to improve our situations and make our jobs easier.Liznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29536003.post-39711885130344115372009-10-24T23:01:24.146-04:002009-10-24T23:01:24.146-04:00I think you are getting too esoteric in your blogg...I think you are getting too esoteric in your blogging. Noone expects this to be fiction, but perhaps reality fictionalized. If your characters are not actual people but composites of actual people that is OK. But if everything is made up or is just wishful thinking on your part based on your unfulfilled hopes, then I have much better fiction and fantasies to read.<br /><br />Maybe I am misreading or it is a change in life ( metaphorical ). Don't worry, guys go through it too.<br /><br />Humor is necessary but like most things, it should be used in moderation. Everyone doesn't get everything, and that's OK.<br /><br />Shalommathman42noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29536003.post-42937937705577985172009-10-24T06:45:14.291-04:002009-10-24T06:45:14.291-04:00Thanks, I needed this.

Remember, you do a good service, both to yourself and to others. And Illegitimi non carborundum!Ricochethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12594506449363717006noreply@blogger.com
