Sorry about my whining...

I didn't mean for my writing yesterday to come across as whining. I'm just frustrated and this is my outlet for my frustration.

I am blessed by having a teaching job. Someone posted that she learns from her students every day. Yes, I do too! I share with my students that I am not a great reader and that reading was not easy for me when I was in elementary school. I tell them about my second grade teacher putting a disruptive student in a box. I tell them about my rolling my eyes and being disrespectful and rude to my teachers and getting in trouble for it. I try as best as I can to be honest with them. I learn about their lives- their likes, dislikes, positive and negative things in their lives.

I guess my whining and frustration is my looking at all the stuff that is put on me as a teacher and what that pressure has done to me over the past few years. I think I would look more positive on my teaching career if I felt more support and encouragement from more than one or two people.

So again, I'm sorry for whining and complaining about my job. I am blessed by having a job. And benefits.

I still don't feel encouraged in all the work I do. That's my opinion. And opinions are like noses. Everyone has one.
