聲音簡(jiǎn)介
These are the real reasons I teach，these people who grow and change in front of me. Being a teacher is being present at the creation，when the clay begins to breathe.
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？”
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？
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.
I teach because，being around people who are beginning to breathe，I occasionally find myself catching my breath with them.
還有雅基。雅基是一個(gè)保潔員，她憑知覺(jué)知道的比我們大多數(shù)人憑借分析所學(xué)到的還要多。雅基決定完成高中學(xué)業(yè)然后進(jìn)大學(xué)深造。
以上是我選擇當(dāng)老師的真正原因，我目睹了這些人在我面前成長(zhǎng)變化。當(dāng)老師就是在創(chuàng)造天地的時(shí)候，在泥土開(kāi)始呼吸的時(shí)候在場(chǎng)。
不當(dāng)老師的“晉升”會(huì)給我?guī)?lái)金錢(qián)和權(quán)力?？墒乾F(xiàn)在也有錢(qián)，我還可以帶薪做自己喜歡的事情：讀書(shū)，與人交談，問(wèn)諸如此類的問(wèn)題，“富裕的意義何在？”
我還有權(quán)力。我有權(quán)去啟迪，去激發(fā)才智，去開(kāi)列參考書(shū)目，去指點(diǎn)迷津。其他權(quán)力哪有這樣的權(quán)力影響深遠(yuǎn)？
當(dāng)老師還會(huì)帶來(lái)超越金錢(qián)和權(quán)力的東西：那就是愛(ài)。不僅僅是對(duì)學(xué)習(xí)、書(shū)籍、思想的愛(ài)，還有當(dāng)出類拔萃的學(xué)生走進(jìn)老師的生活開(kāi)始呼吸成長(zhǎng)的時(shí)候，老師所感覺(jué)到的愛(ài)。也許用“愛(ài)”這個(gè)詞不合適，用“魔力”可能更恰當(dāng)。
我當(dāng)老師是因?yàn)椋钤陂_(kāi)始呼吸成長(zhǎng)的人中間，我有時(shí)會(huì)發(fā)覺(jué)自己與他們同呼吸，共成長(zhǎng)。
