hurting

I was approached by a student a while ago ... she seemed disinterested when I was no longer subbing or teaching. I inspired another adult to pursue teaching. It never touched me like this before. I guess I did put a little something in of myself ... helped one or two people ...

damn

I don't miss some of it, and I can safely write that my pay was never as much "routinely" as it is now, but I did like what I was doing. If I got that kind of consistent pay for teaching hours for teaching ... I'd be happy to sub for eternity. Only now do I see that I did do something positive in the lives of a few people.
