This school year, as usual, has
been a year of contraries. I’m sure I have learned as much as my students have
learned, and I’m just as sure I have failed as often as they have. I have flourished
and diminished, seen failures and success, shown stubbornness and courage,
deserved criticism and praise, endured difficulty and triumph. I have observed
and pondered and wondered and worried. It’s been a year of greatness on some
days and tedious dullness on others. The sunshine of inspiration has been
bright on the best days, and done and gone on the worst days. It’s been a year
like a little universe: whole galaxies of fresh ideas side by side with clusters
of the silliest mistakes imaginable.
