Teaching is a way to pass on what is learned to others. Teaching can inspire. Teaching can influence; teachers can leave a legacy.
By teaching, the world is there to change. Teachers teach because we see the power it offers and the rewards that are available. We know the world needs us to change it; we accept this offer.
Teaching provides for us a way to live outside ourselves. Our "why" is other people; it is them. We teach them because they need us to teach them. They may not like it and want to hear it; we teach anyway. We plant in hard times knowing fruit will come after the storms have watered the spirit.
I get to teach. I am a teacher.
