Post subject:  Be Yourself :)

"To be nobody but yourself...in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else.... means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting."
-E.E. Cummings

I have always loved this quote! It definitely reminds me of all we talked about in class on tuesday. There is no doubt that the media trys to tell us that we should strive to be like "the perfect models." I believe that learning to be happy and content with the person God made you to be is quite an achievement. I think this is something that we as future teachers should strive for. I believe that if our students see that in us...then hopefully we will pass it along to them.
