Rebellion is when you look society in
the face and say, I understand who you
want me to be, but instead, I will show
you who I actually am.

Not quite certain when I became so
rebellious . . . I was a family child, bent
on helping out with my special brother.
Yet, I do know I was allowed to speak
my mind and have my own opinions.
I am beyond grateful to my parents for
this amazing gift.

My rebellious nature certainly helped
me in my teaching. It allowed me to
accept my students and challenge their
minds to different ways of thinking. 
Not so sure how my administrators 
felt about that!

Still, I have to believe that there is a
right way and a wrong way of doing
things, no matter how rebellious! Just
because one is different, unusual,
eccentric, this doesn't give the right 
to be unkind, hurtful, or thoughtless.

I realize I will ever be an eccentric
and a rebel. Still, I wish to always 
strive to understand the other side 
of the equation. I want to listen to
alternative thought and opinion. I
long to understand different ways
of looking at things and thinking
differently!

Pray I go to my grave kicking up
the dust under my feet . . .

behave yourself girl
just who do you think you are
longing to be me
