Teacher
(page 3)
Of all the hard jobs around, one of the hardest is being a good teacher.
Let us remember: One book, one pen, one child, and one teacher can change the world.
Read something of interest every day — something of interest to you, not to your teacher or your best friend or your minister/rabbi/priest. Comics count. So does poetry. So do editorials in your school newspaper. Or a biography of a rock star. Or an instructional manual. Or the Bible.
There is no employing class, no working class, no farming class. You may pigeonhole a man or woman as a farmer or a worker or a professional man or an employer or even a banker. But the son of the farmer will be a doctor or a worker or even a banker, and his daughter a teacher. The son of a worker will be an employer — or maybe president.
I like a teacher who gives you something to take home to think about besides homework.
