"No, life cannot be understood flat on a page. It has to be lived; a person has to get out of his head, has to fall in love, has to memorize poems, has to jump off bridges into rivers, has to stand in an empty desert and whisper sonnets under his breath... We get one story, you and I, and one story alone. God has established the elements, the setting and the climax and resolution. It would be a crime not to venture out, wouldn't it?"

How's my student teaching going?


Couldn't have summarized it better myself. 

The pros and cons of wrestling 5th graders are evenly balanced. Yesterday I wanted to cry for hours, today I was laughing so hard. First, I'll be giving them the stern "what-do-you-think-you're-doing" look and five minutes later I'm giving one of my students a hug. It's a never ending rollercoaster of loving, disciplining and sometimes actual teaching.

But those kids sure are adorable.

Shut up. I know I'm wearing a teacher cardigan.
