Feeling It

This is just one of the those days.

Some days go by very peaceful and serene in school. Today was not one of them.
They say it doesn't only rain; it pours.

They also say good and bad things happen in 3; though I don't really believe.

1. We were reprimanded for negligence.

2. Reluctant learners kept us moving in circles till weeping mothers were called in; they told me the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. How do you reconcile with males bigger in size than you and the need to be literate?

3. A newcomer almost like a misfit had us worried when his guardian roamed round the school to protect him.

Dealing with teens who are vocal, active and boisterous can sometimes prove to be a challenge and yet the challenge has to be handled in the best possible way. Let love be the basis of action and matters can be solved better ? I heard this over the radio on the way back and it evoked a thought:
" Do you always want to be kind or right?"

That really made me reflect.
What do you want to be known as?
Compromise? How much? How many times?

Just one of those days when you don't have time to sit down before the next challenge came.
Feeling my age.

I want to watch American Idol now.
