Why the heck do I teach?

Why do I teach? Is it to "touch the future?" Is it to feed my family? Simply............NO.

I teach because it is in my bones and marrow. To impart knowledge to a young mind is probably the closest thing to............a sunset over the Grand Canyon or a cool wind blowing in your face on the beach of Mexico .......... it is simply...................awesome !!!

If you don't love teaching then you will never last the daily grind of students pestering you with silly requests and questions. Oh, I have my impatient moments (all teachers do!), but the "insanity" is only for a moment.

Thank God summer is here !!
