I believe in teachers. Yes, cops fight crime, gangs and drug dealers. Along with the fire fighters, But teachers give knowledge and “Knowledge is Power”….. Teachers help people see more to life. They “ Sand away the paint that was covering the Big Picture.” Then again the teacher can only teach who is listening and see the importance. I was arrogant, especially when I got held back, I did not care for school because every one I knew go to the next grade then on to the next school,and the years to come I was a year late, This was a big issue because the school dropped programs. I can remember the first year of 3rd grade I was existed about the bottle rockets in 4Th grade. The year I should have gone to 4Th grade, was there last year they let the 4Th graders learn about it. 6Th grade we took a tour to heritage middle school , They had small engine repair, but the next year when I got to 6Th grader they did not have it. I let a lot of this type of things get in my way of following the right path. By my freshman year I had begin to listen more in depth with the teachers. I started to understand the years of wisdom they all had, and was willing to share, and I was not just listening, my spirit was along with my ears. listening with just your ears, cant get u to fully understand the importance. Sometime we half to learn the hard way. Just like me or some of my best friends probably wouldn’t listen to me fully, they might say yea, or i get u, but how much of that did they actually think deeply about. I don’t, But i know if they don’t lissten with there spirit, they wont see the wisdom,and with wisdom comes logical judgement. I believe in teachers( NOT THE SCHOOL SYSTEM ) because they bring wisdom to defeat arrogance and ignorance.
