MY FIRST DAY AS A TEACHER (part 3)

                 MY FIRST DAY AS A TEACHER (part 3 ) I had to attend to some arising issues that needed my attention.As you might not be aware,  the schools have closed for the December holidays. At home , arising matters have to be dealt with now that I'm available. The learners who were perched on the window were enjoying the attention I had given them. Kids love attention. I went into the class armed with the class register ,a blue pen and of course a red one. I made sure I had a piece of chalk. These are the tools of trade excluding other professional documents.

FREEDOM MISUNDERSTOOD.

Freedom is misunderstood. There’s a focus on being able to do, or to choose. Think about your local supermarket, and the freedom you have to pick any sort of cereal. Any sort! So much freedom to do what you want, on the major and minor levels. But what about freedom from? Don’t get me wrong. I love freedom to do whatever I want; but how often do I use it? How often am I prevented by subtle, invisible walls inside me that prevent me from boarding flights, finding new restaurants, or breaking my routines? I don’t blame myself, you know. That’s human. Routine is often quite nice. But not always. And it’s worth examining when we limit our own freedoms. That’s because freedom to, while rightly celebrated, has an oft-ignored sister. And that’s the freedom from. Freedom from includes freedom from internal limits. It involves freedom from desires that lead you by the nose into unthinking patterns.
