Some inspirational hope

I have recently been reading Teach With Your Heart by Erin Gruwell. It is a follow-up to The Freedom Writers Diary which was also made into a movie. She is a teacher who uses writing to reach her students the way I hope to reach mine with art. I recommend the book to all of you, it is inspirational but at the same time doesn’t sugar-coat. Her point is that at times things are going to be rough and teaching is not easy but it is truly worth it, a message I’m sure we are all going to need to hear at times.
