Justified

I am by nature defensive; I rarely go on the offense, and then only if:
  1. I am confident I am right
  2. I have counted the cost
  3. I consider the battle to be worth fighting

Teaching... vs. Being a Teacher

One of the many fine teachers at the high school I teach at recently said that while he loves teaching, he hates being a teacher.
