"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat." Theodore Roosevelt

So we call ourselves Christins, teachers


Being a teacher holds you to a higher standard. So this means we will be judged to a higher extent because we know others are watching us trying to learn from our actions as we are trying to follow in Christ's footsteps. It's what we are called to do, even during Jesus's time on earth the disciples were held to higher standards by the pharasies, "When the Pharisees saw this, they said to him, "Look! Your disciples are doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath." Matthew 12:2

So this is a challenge to those of us who call ourselves Christians: Live for Christ and challenge yourself so you can motivate others.

PS School is kicking my butt. Organismal is disgusting.
