Leaving....and Living

I was Principal for six years. The task was larger than the life I could imagine: students' concerns...teachers' woes...the parents, the Administration. I lived and worked from day to day...and praying in between. Practically, I have given all that I could as a worker doing the task required to be done. I have spent my talents, my skills...all the know hows that I had... I have shared great portion of heart...my youth! But life's rewards are not yet on my door I knew. Complaining was not my clue. One morning I saw streaks of gray hair falling on my face...and the smile had grown weak but stern. Where was I? I wrote a letter of leave from school. Unmindful of the things and people I'll miss, and the job I love so much I decided to leave...to live again. This blog begins as I reshape my life and take a quick turn to the "road less traveled".

A Reason To Live

The teacher had explained the creation of Adam and Eve and on the following day was eliciting feedback. A little boy got up and described how Adam came about. Then a little girl stood up and continued,"Well, God created Adam and looked him over and said, 'I think I can do better than that'....and created Eve". -Christopher Notes That little girl became a teacher.
