I think I might quit teaching

What we need in the world, today, especially as teachers, is people who kick ass and take names.

I'm not that person. I don't like to hurt people or force their hands to get my way.

I want to do something where I can just do my thing and avoid people altogether, as much as possible, I think.

Teaching and education just don't mean anything to me as long as they end up with someone forcing someone else's hands when reason fails.

I need to find a profession where I can live a quiet life and avoid all this ugliness that passes for reason, these days.

Happy Martin Luther King Day.

Love,
Ben
