The Lost Art of Connecting

Heart to heart connecting is such a joy. And there is so much pain when it is not there. I became a teacher so I could challenge kids to higher things. I never dreamed they would be so resistant to those higher things.

I have ten beautiful children in my charge for 40 hours a week, but there are days I feel like that school teacher in Prince Caspian when Aslan comes and all her students turn into little pigs and run off.

I think tomorrow I will find a way to let them know that I love them and that they are precious to me.

By the by, it is really good to have you back here.
