To My Students (Past and Present)

Each day I wake up I am truly thankful for all those that I am blessed to have in my life. It's taken me a long time to find something I love and truly am passionate about. I have found that love in teaching, and couldn't be more grateful that I did.

Nothing brings me more joy in a day than to realize that a child enjoys you for something as simple as liking their artwork, to something more elaborate like when they appreciate what you have taught them. I have encountered students of all walks of life in my 4 short years of teaching, and I couldn't be happier than I am right now for all those I have met and for all those I still get to interact with every day I come to work (if that's what you call it).

Days like today are what I signed up for when I decided to teach. Watching kids all around me engrossed in their work, asking for more to do, looking for answers from eachother and seeking out extra instruction from teachers. There were kids interacting, there were kids outside studying, I saw kids this week ready to build things. 

This is what I want, this is what I am passionate about. My dream, my desire, my goal in life, is to inspire those around me to learn. Not only to learn but to desire knowledge and take in as much as they can. From their, the inspiration and passion will spread like wild fire and inspire the world.

Simply put....I love you.

Seek Up

Life it seems a struggle between
What we think what we see
I'm not going to change my ways
Just to please you or appease you
Inside a crowd, five billion proud
Willing to punch it out
Right wrong weak strong
Ashes to ashes we all fall down
Look around this round
About this merry-go-round around
If at all God's gaze upon us fall
His mischievious grin look at him

Forget about the reasons and
The treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that
Our emotions can be swept away
Forget about being quilty,
We are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away

Sit a while with TV's hungry child
Big belly swelled
Oh, for the price of a coke or a smoke,
Keep alive those hungry eyes
Take a look at me, what you see in me
mirror look at me
Face it all, face it all again

You seek up an emotion
And our cup is overflowing
You seek up an emotion
Sometimes your well is dry
You seek up a big monster
For him to fight your wars for you
But when he finds his way to you the devil's not Going

Look at me in my fancy car
And my back account
Oh, how I wish I coiuld take it all down
Into my grave, I'd save
Take a look again
Everyday things change, stay the same

The Girl

I watch as the daylight crawls
past the shadows hanging on the walls
it's been a long time since we felt the stain
of yesterday getting in my way
I'm alive but tell me am I free
I got eyes but tell me can I see
the sky is falling and no one knows
it shouldn't be hard to believe
shouldn't be this difficult to breathe
the sky is falling and no one knows
you leave me hanging on
only to catch my breath
I got you and I got nothing left
don't leave me all alone down here
with myself and all of my fear
I'm alive but tell me am I free
I got eyes but tell me can I see
the sky is falling and no one knows
it shouldn't be hard to believe
shouldn't be this difficult to breathe
the sky is falling and no one knows
