Reflection: Survival by Cherie
There are times I feel my survival is at stake. Not life, but spirit. Surviving requires you hold firm to what you know is right. Surviving is never letter another kill your spirit for your life’s work. Surviving requires you to never forget when life was seriously against you. Surviving means you must always fill the dismissals, snicks, and other things with joy. Surviving is remembering that are deep lessons in frustrations and inequities. Surviving is remembering that the gifts you bestow on another matter. Surviving is always remembering there will be those who will use your words against you, but in the next 5 years that moment will have little impact on your legacy on Earth.
This is what I like to see! A person who is will to sacrifice a large part of his salary to help save vital programs for his district. It is rare that you see heads of school make this gesture. He is sending a clear message that he cares about his district and not just himself and that he is will doing what it takes to keep vital programs for the students and teachers in his district.
