Conductors of light and magic...

So this will probably be cliched mush, and I accept this, but since the beginning of this class I can't help but feel more than slightly inspired. We've heard a few times in class since the semester began that we, as soon to be socials teachers, will be conductors of light and magic. We'll hopefully work to inspire our students and push them to great things. This is more than a little in opposition to how I'd been feeling previously - that curriculum was the end all and be all and that we'll be lucky if the students even enjoy one class in the year. Thank god too, as I'd have burnt out fairly quickly if I continued thinking that way. In any case, this post doesn't really promote discussion in any way, but hopefully this link will make you feel a bit better about the world and your place in it. Most of you may have already seen it, but for those of you who haven't, enjoy.

AWWWW people have me laughing and smiling and that was not mush because you just made someone smile. I too have been feeling inspired since day one and I am glad to know that you feel the same way.
