Destined new teachers
Crazy kids may bring happiness
Life shall be unpredictable
This class is one of my favorite classes. I enjoyed class last week, and was enlightened by the things I learned that I never knew, like the interracial marriage laws that are within the US for example. I look forward to learning something new every week in class, the same way I will look forward to sharing and receiving something new from my students each day or throughout the week as a teacher. The poem is a reflection of both class and my life as a teacher. The children and lives we are soon to encounter are each going to be genuine, unique, challenging, sweet, unruly all of these at once, and some different from the others. But I desire to embrace them and be open to each unpredictable day. In the second line I said crazy kids may bring happiness, because the reality is that for some of us, this may not be the path God paved the way for and happiness may not be the case. However if it is, does that make us crazy too? If so then crazy I plan to be!

I loved this haiku and I completely agree with you. Life and the kids we are going to come in contact with as teachers will sure be "crazy" too. Its up to us destined educators to believe in them and guide them.
