Being better

Do you ever read something that just makes you feel small because it makes you see yourself as you don't particularly want to see yourself?

"It happened to them," were the four words that shut me and the other teachers up. "It happened to them, not to you. You tell the stories like it's some kind of entertainment, but it happened to them—the kids. They are the ones who 30 years from now will remember these stories with tears in their eyes."

I want to live to a higher standard.
