Even now, I occasionally bump into former students who thank me for treating them like human beings. There are some, now in their 20s, with whom I am Facebook friends. A couple of times per year I get together with another former high school student for coffee and just to catch up. <br /><br />All of this tells me that like you, I was sometimes able to have a positive impact upon their lives. Working with kids can be difficult at times, but it's also a very rewarding endeavor--as is your walk home through the country side.

In a world where more and more robots can take over physical jobs, the mind is the only thing that will endure. <br /><br />I also love your way to work, I wish mine was that interesting!Leneleinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07182680654861239740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5406319356659344188.post-58121722555571818832013-02-14T11:16:51.719-08:002013-02-14T11:16:51.719-08:00It really does sound like the perfect job, and the...It really does sound like the perfect job, and the walk to and from work with the scenery and wildlife is like the icing on the cake!! :o) Insomniac's Attichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11713662124096176176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5406319356659344188.post-69736402962438893302013-02-14T09:24:15.707-08:002013-02-14T09:24:15.707-08:00Fantastic!

I have had my share of those teachers who do not give a toss about that sort of things and it is quite sad. Jadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17657394873058225387noreply@blogger.com
