Teaching = malleable... Love = compromise

I am truly blessed... while my friends sit idol and alone in cubicles and interact with computer screens compartmentalizing their day between you tube, emails, and small talk at the water cooler with Todd and Jane.. I get to communicate with Bilal and Diyaldin about the importance of having more than just a jump shot, break up squabbles between Rolangyi and Diana, and inspire Kyrell and Lionel through ancient Greek literature.... The reason inner city educators don't make any money isn't because what we do is easy, half hearted, or unimportant... Its because we get to do all of the things other people tell themselves they could never do, in places they only read about in the headlines, with children who don't look, sound, or act like them... We get way more than we give.... While they give way more than they get.....
