I found myself thinking about
you the other day, as we both
taught at Adams City. I was
there 23 years; 'twould have
to admit, I simply loved it.
You were ever so great for our
kids. I think I'd explain it by
saying you gave them a glimpse
into a different kind of life than
they'd ever known.
You also offered a different kind
of structure, discipline not linked
to bad behavior. As we shared
some of the same students, they
would often come into the class
room talking about you, They
would speak to the rigor of your
classes, as well as their training,
uniforms and performances.
Methinks they secretly loved it
all!
I'd have to say, we too were given
a gift. Teaching in said community,
getting to know the families of
our students, sharing their lives
for just a little while . . . all good!
Treat yourself to a 'look back' from
time to time. You deserve it! Hail
fellow well met!
