And here I thought it was the below bar/par attitude and practice of most South Africans. It's tragic to think this is an international lackadaisical approach to life. But enough about the world! It is disgusting that your teacher would humiliate you before the other kids and not use her compassion and education to encourage you to strive for higher and better. I had a maths teacher like that. I always think I'm terrible with maths and then I remember that I excelled, until I got the wrong teacher. So wrong that I dropped maths and all hopes of calculations for the rest of my life, until now. Let's believe rather that your a word genius and had a terrible teacher that could not recognize and channel that. Enough about words I have a certain weekend post requiring a big amount of words .... bye!

It's interesting how a school teacher can hold a person back, tear them down really, just for a momentary feeling of power of empowerment in front of seventeen year olds.
Anyway, I amounted to something, whatever that is, and wasn't at all held back by what she said just as your math teacher really had little bearing on your life. Insignificant people don't matter.
You have some words to get down so good luck with that, late here so probably time to think about sleeping.
Touché
