To be or not be a teacher

Why do I suffer under the torture of being a target for wadded paper, a tomato, and erasers dipped in ink? Why am I trying to teach 40 students per class about biodiversity, population dynamics, habitat fragmentation and demography? Why am I losing my voice from having to yell, plead, whisper, demand, lecture, chide, quiet, and control? Is it for the $? Is it for the glimmer of hope that there is learning, inspiration, and exploration?

DID is a word of achievement
WON'T is a word of retreat
MIGHT is a word of bereavement
CAN'T is a word of defeat
OUGHT is a word of duty
TRY is a word each hour
WILL is a word of beaty
CAN is a word of power

For those related to Hornoks who are wondering.

This can be a site where you put up the latest info about your life and others can comment on it. You do have to have a blogger password to comment, but for those of you who want to be able to post a thread, just let me know and I'll give you administrative capabilities. I really will. Then you can write threads that nobody knows about or doesn't comment on because they don't love you or aren't computer-literate or don't know about it, like they don't know hornok.com "-)
