What I feel the most confident about as a teacher, whatever my strengths and weaknesses are. The fact that I got to be around those people, I feel like that I have something to offer because of that blessing. Being around them a little bit... I'm not them.

I want to make sense of things, to understand the world, but my work is never really instructional.

It's just a jotting-down of things that you can interpret in your own ways.
