Journal Entry for June 29, 2007 Mood
Friday, June 29, 2007
I was so tired last night that I felt so cold I could not warm up. i crawled in to bed at 8, and did not get out until 5:30. It was beautiful. I really felt like I accomplished something today-untangling client barrier...It is funny- I used to be so stiff in my job- keeping such heavy starched barriers and boundaries- teacher student. Now I ca be me, and teach. I can reach out to people and tell my truths. Students are not to bring children or guests to class; and i couldn't  figure why they would bring family by- having friends or others bring them up to share( ia can not due to work policy), today I was realizing how blessed I am that they choose to share the thing most precious to them with me...what a gift!Some days I love my job. I have been gifted with the most suportive group of students in my class- they lift eachother- which makes me smile- I have seen so many of the women in my room come so very far- I like for my classroom to be a safe place in their lives where they no longer have to fight or be guarded and can like the beautiful people they are.

    You're an amazing teacher and our schools need more people like you. I'm glad you got some well needed and well deserved rest. You have a lot to be proud of and a lot to stand tall about in your life. Imagine the positive effect you are having on all of these kids. You're doing a great thing and I applaud you.
