Johnathan Swift

Do I know much about this man? Nope! Nonetheless, his famous quote speaks to me. "It was a brave man who first ate an oyster." How about, "he is a brave man that first sets out to teach." And really, unless you are a teacher, this probably means nothing to you, but it takes a certain kind of bravery to face "them" everyday. Now, do I consider myself a brave person? Not so much. I had however always considered myself a patient person. After a while in the classroom, I know that this is a fallacy. I am not patient and most likely you owe any rants you read to that fact.
