Moral tribulations
Thriving sensations
Is this lust?
Is this living by the body?
The Spirit is to have overtaken me
In control by that spirit
But I got spirit
And he got spirit
Can we just merge our spirits
Framing in spirituality doesn't make it spiritual
Or justify the drive inside
One plus one equals two
Is true I'm one with you?
Moral tribulations
Combating sensation
Am I to avoid this place?
I still want to see that face
Clarity
Purity
Guidance
Take over my spirit.

The qualms of a first year teacher
Just to be able to take in the world
To experience light when I wake up
To feel like I was fully rested
To not think of leaving a prison the first time when we go outside of recess, providing us a break from the windowless room of our educational meetings
To be in the sunlight after work, not darkness, and have it feel familiar instead of a shy meeting with an acquaintance
To feel like I have time to exercise
To feel physically able to exercise again (this bacterial internal infection certainly puts that on hold)
To feel full of energy again
To give myself the best so I can be my best for them
To have enough to eat
To get paid enough to have disposable income to cope with teaching challenges
To feel I get paid what I deserve
One day for them.
One day for me.

Teaching... 9/19/13
Teaching makes me miss me
The human condition
In the classroom
The teacher
Nurturing the human condition
May my teaching be a dance of joy
May the front of the room be where I advance my scholars where they need to go
And may I also export the feeling that teaching makes me miss "me"
May, instead of sleep-exercise-nutrition-balance-and-social-self-nourishing deprivation the classroom be a place where I am being me
To advance my students
And advance myself
May I bring myself into that place
Poetic, New York, vegan, lively, hip-hop conversations and manifestations!
Where teaching+myheart= their knowledge and progress
May they be free to be themselves and I be free to be myself
May we express ourselves as our bond deepens and connection grows
May we be one in that place where all our needs are met together
Holistic healing
For us
Equals.
