| sometimes i get frustrated cuz i want so much to just make photos and read books about photography and learn about photography and just be a photographer. and i wonder why i'm here teaching these ignorant teenagers who don't seem to care about anything. but there are times when my students say things or do things and i remember that i'm here for a reason. some examples:
one of my students asked me, "you'll never leave us, right?" cuz one of his other teachers was leaving to teach at another school. teachers go in and out of this school so much. i'm teaching here to show them that i care enough to stay and not give up on them.
another student came to me and told me, "you have been my inspiration, ms. lambright. i didn't like art before, but i really love it now." i'm also here to inspire and build appreciation for the arts.
so, even though i don't always feel like i'm making a difference or don't feel like my students are learning anything, i just have to try to remember that i am making a difference...even if it is just a little difference. someone at this school needs me right now, and that's why i'm here.

God is like a bungy cord. no matter how far you try to run from Him, He will never let you go...His arm just keeps stretching along with you...and eventually, you won't be able to resist the pull, and you will go flying back to Him...and it kinda hurts to be jerked back so fast, but He picks you up and dusts you off and it's all good again.
