For many of us, we recently started a new school year. A new start full of promise. It represents a clean slate for us to write a new story. It is a time of renewal, reflection, and resolve. It is a time to resolve to do those things we want to start doing, as well as remember those things we want to stop doing. Basically, we can reinvent ourselves and our teaching. Irrespective of any of that, the one thing we must keep in mind is best summed up in the words of Dr. Caroline Leaf when she so perfectly stated that “Your purpose is not the thing you do. It is the thing that happens in others when you do what you do.” And that is what will always continue to nourish and drive us as teachers. Today and every day.
