A {teacher}

"A teacher takes a seed of promise, tends it with encouragement, and watches as it grows.... knowing that one day it will be the fruit that feeds the world."






While (I) was substituting today I came across this quote...  it really made me think about the {impact} I have on the students I connect with each day.  While I was growing up I never went a day without dreaming of being a teacher, even when I was real young {I always dreamt} of having my own classroom.  The one thing I thought about every time I envisioned my future as an educator was the impact I could make on a individual.  This quote makes me appreciate my field of interest even more.  Knowing that I can take a seed, water it with encouragement, and than watch it bloom into a beautiful flower helps me get through each day.  Teachers often times work in a demanding and often times exhausting atmosphere,,,, most educators forget that and remember the seed that has been planted.  


Being a teacher is always more [rewarding] than discouraging.  I enjoy everyday of it.... it is exciting to challenge each student differently and watch each individual become success.  They are all individuals, each {seed} needs to be tended to differently, and each {seed} will grow and bloom at a pace which creates individuality.
