From: The Seattle Times, Letters to the Editor, May 30, 2001

"Teaching is not a job, it's a calling. For short-termers, it's a craft to be mastered. For the long-haulers, teaching becomes an art form. And like great art, it becomes priceless when the artist passes on."

Perspective Check


Perspective Check

One life’s worries used to be plenty.
Then marriage and children
 Compounded the anxiety. Still,
That predated the “Information Age.”

Now worldwide instant access
Means I can share everyone’s worries
Twenty-four hours a day.
Oh, for the good old “Ignorant Age”
When Dad told me to mind my own business.
