I don't know how to explain it like, just because they do come from such broken homes, you know that like, I wish more people actually cared about you know, everyone's like complaining about like our future generation. I'm like, Well, are you doing anything to help? You know, like, Are you are you making sure the school system is actually providing, you know, things for these kids? Like, are you going out in the community and like cleaning up the neighborhoods? Are you going to talk to these kids? Are you mentoring them? You know, so like, to me, like, if you're not gonna, if you're gonna complain about something, then at least do something about it, you know? But like these kids really are like, they give hugs every day like, and they don't like any other teachers. So like, the fact that they like come up to me and like hug me and like, they're, they just want to be with me It got to a point where like, I literally had to tell the kids like, you guys have to go to your class like because I would, I would have probably like 15 kids and just try to skip all the other classes just so they can hang out in my class. And they weren't they didn't want to do anything. They just want to hang out my class weren't being loud. They weren't being rowdy. And I'm like, guys, like, y'all are gonna get me so much. Like, I can't do this, like, You're not even at lunchtime, the only break I had, like, I had had a group of girls like, you know, they were just having they're going through some drama and like a lot of stuff at home and, you know, I'm like, in my lunch and like, I just want a break. You know what I mean? But I'm like, but I'm like, you know what, like, just I'll suck it up. Just come up here, here, eat lunch, you know, be quiet, whatever. And they would, but like, to me that's fulfilling like that, that is more fulfilling than I mean anything I've done so I mean, that makes me happy and then I go home, go to bed. Jim hang out with my kid, you know? So like, I don't know, I'm just really simple. And I feel like giving is more important than like, going and doing something if that makes any sense, like my dream or whatever. I don't know, like, because I know I could do whatever I wanted, you know, I mean, I'm very capable. I know what I'm capable of. But like, That, to me is my happy. @meredithburnsss @robert_delude @eastcoasttags www.eastcoasttags.com Prmo: noneofyourbusiness
