This industry is truly a passion based career. Without passion, one will drown in a sea of depression because these children can get really challenging at times and not to mentioned about the paper work (lesson plan and each child evaluations).
Today, amazingly I was told by someone that any teachers who told him that they have passion for children are all bullshit! When I disagreed with him, he continued saying, "If you have passion for children, you will get married and have a lot of children of your own". Again I disagree with him because it doesn't make sense.
How many married couples out there who yearn for the coming of their child but they are unable to conceive. How many individuals out there who looking forward for a soulmate to welcome in their life.
I'm not sure his words is to hurt me or he just said that due his lack of compassion to other human. Claiming that he have attained degree in psychology. I don't care whatever certificate an individual attained. But if they pass out such remarks, my point of view towards that individual changed.
Nevertheless, at least today I'm given a chance to see another behaviour of how not to carry myself when I'm roaming around on earth.
Thank you for the guidance, knowledge and opportunities to nurture me to be a better version of me and show a "live" example of how not to behave in the presence of another human.
I don't just have passion for children. Being child-like is innate in me. Hence, children can connect with me effortlessly.
