Minding My Own
Business! Minding My Ps & Qs!
I am an adult, a
responsible and very nice woman. A woman
with a few graduate terminal degrees and a multitude of graduate studies;
someone interested in society, fairness, value and fair-play. I am patient and overall, able to discuss and
be in the company of anyone and everyone. Some people would say that I am very
nice.
Oh my! Is this what they mean by being on the edge
of a Social Revolution? My students
barely squeak by, taking classes and working menial jobs to keep things
together enough to move forward with college studies. As Adjunct Faculty, I am in the same dilemma
of figuring out who to pay, and the pressure to teach more classes and tutor
takes away from my life; from quality of life.
I love teaching and the process of learning; the lit and the writing;
otherwise, how could I commit to such a career decision that leaves me in a quandary
of how to live a life that matters; not in terms of connecting to the lit and the
discussions and the students; but how to decide whether or not to pay the
electric bill or the rent.
