What great feedback is for me...



For the following entry I have included two mindmaps, one simply stating the commandments and another one including 
a brief explanation for each.

Failure...

Image
So,  I wrote what to me seems like a poem... Lowkey, I hope no one reads it but here it is anyway. Failing is human, a natural part of life. To understand that is one thing, to embrace it is a different story. A failure is an interesting event it's an avalanche when revisited with hate  and a ghost when ignored.  Discomfort comes when we fall short, it's a painful reminder of our vulnerability, yet a potentially healing force.  After doing worse in this semester than I would've ever imagined  some bits of my heart hurt, and even with it all,  I've learned more than ever: more about myself and about life itself, about school and friends I guess this is the balance that life can be, terribly sad and incredibly fulfilling within the same week Today I just want to cry about it  So I will Crying is human, a natural part of life. Today, that I embrace.

Pros and cons of studying online (from the perspective of a disorganized student)

May 15th

On May 15th, 2019 I received a gift, it was a plastic rose that came along with a can of cookies. It was held by two small hands behind the back of the smiley seven-year-old I'd been teaching for about three months at that point. It was my first ever Teacher's Day present and it was given to me so wholeheartedly, yet, I didn't feel like a real teacher. I thanked him with crying eyes and promised myself that I would become a better teacher. Days have gone by and new doubts and determinations regarding the topic continue to fill my mind; they swap places and, at times, destroy each other leaving me with nothing more than confusion. On May 15th, 2020, I got a call. A tiny voice asked: Do you know who I am? His mom lent her phone for the call. He continued: I just wanted to wish you a Happy Teacher's Day. A year later the same voice reminded me that we are all learning from each other. That's why teaching is worth the try.
