Sorry, I just had to tell myself that once or twice. Not in an effort to deny that I do in fact teach, but in an effort to remind myself that although teaching is my profession, it is not my identity. While I love intricacies of grammar and imagination - my self worth is not wrapped up in how my students perform or if they like me that day.
I am simply me - and I'm pretty stinkin' awesome.
Sometimes I wish I could separate my future vocation from my identity...calling is a b#%(&%(
ReplyDeleteoh yeah, its finals week, could you tell?
