"everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves,"  -Carl Jung. I believe that there is no point in being mean, that being mean is exhausting. I have studied all types of religion, from Buddhist, Christianity, apostolic, Hinduism, and even Taoism (which was one of my favorites). I teach CCD, which is like a Christian school, to kids and while teaching I not only learn about how to handle others but also how to handle myself. I have always handled rather difficult kids, from swim lessons to CCD, teaching has become one of my favorite past times not because I love the actual teaching aspect of teaching, and it's definitely not for the salary, but the understanding that I changed a child's life right in front of my eyes is something that could never truly be understood. I had one kid who I taught swim lessons too, the swim lessons consisted of two weeks, in those two weeks I taught this little frightened girl how to jump in the water, how to swim around, how to float, etc. however in the end the father came up to me and told me; "My daughter has always had trouble putting her head under the water, even at home in the shower. She was horrified of swimming thinking she would drown, but after these two weeks she can't stop jumping in the water, she's perfectly able to put her head under the water now, and truly it is all thanks to your lessons" I truly after that I understood, I loved teaching these kids about stuff just too purely seem them grow and flourish.
