This is part of my much-loved copy of "The Heart of a Teacher," an article by Parker Palmer. When I recieved this in class, I read it and reread it many times. I love Palmer's understanding of how complex teaching really is, and how important it is to be a whole and honest person in the classroom. I strongly reccommend it.
