blah blah blah obligatory "work won't love you back." but actually i do feel enlivened and attuned when i do this work. and *i* love me back. and it is amazing when students talk about learning new ways of seeing and new ways of thinking, when they get brave enough to ask their questions.

I hope that this isn't my last class and that these aren't my last students. But if they are, they were SO GREAT. Honestly, I have been very very lucky, to love teaching and to have had students who love learning. This work brings me joy. I'm so lucky to have gotten to do it for 6 years!
