Honoured

In response to Mark Rusli's comment, I'm really honoured that there are still people out there reading my blog. Well, you'd be surprised too about how often I think about the students from BWSS and my teaching days there.

I remember the times that I got chairs thrown in my general direction, the time when someone remarked about the bulbous giant that I call my nose, the obvious struggles to ensure learning took place every day and the silent wars that sometimes came my way. I also remember the ones who prayed for my unborn babies (and see how they've grown), the apologies from contrite hearts, the defeated souls who found their fire again and the many who worked so hard to find a little place for themselves in this unforgiving society.

I'm still on no-pay leave with the Ministry of Education and recently, I've been thinking about tendering my resignation so that I wouldn't have to go through the hassle of re-applying for it every nine months or so. But when I think about how lovely all of you are, I hesitate. Maybe the students will be alot different if and when I finally return to the teaching service but if they're anything like the students that I've had the privilege of teaching, then it'd be well worth hanging on.
