What Are You Doing Teaching Preschool?

There are those days when the logical mind says,

you must move on and do a better job of supporting yourself.

Those days when the logical mind says, why did you choose this

career, it is not reasonable.

If the heart can still the mind, then the answers are apparent.

Perhaps logic did not play a great part in choosing our jobs as teachers.

We are truly teaching life's most important lessons to the little ones;

The lesson of love, to love oneself unconditionally and to

share that love with others.

Perhaps we were guided and chosen to be in this place.

For teaching love in a crowded, confused and often angry world

is not somthing everyone can do.

How many people are hugged and told they are loved by the people

they work with each day?

How many people own original works of art created expressly for them?

How many jobs allow you to wipe away tears and make the world

a better place for others?

How many people are allowed to see a tired, weary world

through fresh new eyes,

where all things are possible,

To hear laughter and joy for no big reason, just for being.

When the logical mind says, what are you doing teaching young children?

Listen to your heart one more time.
