In this moment

In this moment of a day as a teacher, it takes strength to be firm.  It takes courage to be gentle.  

In this moment of a day as a teacher, it takes strength to conquer.  It takes courage to surrender.

In this moment of a day as a teacher, it takes strength to be certain.  It takes courage to have doubt.

In this moment of a day as a teacher, it takes strength to fit in.  It takes courage to stand out.

In this moment of a day as a teacher, it takes strength to feel a student's pain.  It takes courage to feel your own pain.

In this moment of a day as a teacher, it takes strength to stand alone.  It takes courage to lean on another.

In this moment of a day as a teacher, it takes strength to love.  It takes courage to be loved.

In this moment of a day as a teacher, it takes strength to survive.  It takes courage to live.

In this moment of a day as a teacher, I am strong.  I am courage in this moment of a day as a teacher.
