Education in Ideals and Pragmatism Continues in Working at School

To say that one never desires to be the beneficiary of inequality is a wonderful, ego-stroking platitude, but to put such an ideal into action in one's own work place is very, very uncomfortable.  To risk fowling one's own comfortable nest, at least for me today, is intensely nerve racking, but I think in a small way it was one of the most mindful things I've done in years.  I only hope and pray (and I prayed today... a lot) that I will have the courage to keep it up.  I guess the stakes are higher now that we are actually adults, huh? So much more to come, but I'm tired. Chinese for I'm tired is, "Wo UH Luh."
