第一段 These are the real reasons I teach ,these people who grow and change in front of me ,Being a teacher is being present an the creation,when the clay begins to breathe第二段 A "promotion" out of teaching would give me money and power.But I have money.I get paid to do what I enjoy:reading,talking with people,and asking questions like ,"What is the point of being rich?" 第三段 And I have power ,I have the power to nudge ,to fan sparks,to suggest books,to point out a pathway.What other power matters?第四段 But teaching offers something besides money and power:it offers love.Not only the love of learning and of books and ideas,but also the love that a teacher feels for that rare student who walks into a teacher's life and begins to breathe.Perhaps love is the wrong word:magic might be better 第五段 I teach because,being around people who are beginning to breathe,I occasionally find myself catching my breath with them.
