I need wisdom!

I have always claimed that one can learn so much by teaching, and I have not changed my mind on that point. By listening to the various statements my students are making, I learn new things, I learn to see new perspectives, get new info…

But most importantly I understand more about people. Today, for instance I had a test with some of the students, and one of the answers was indirectly a testimony of a life. I feel honored and humble. And it makes me realize (once more) what an incredibly important job it is to be a teacher.

If I mess things up, some of the students may suffer for life. If I can share love, compassion and generosity, and help them reach their potential, some students may get a life.

Oh, Lord, I definitely need some wisdom…
