The Right Thing

Today I am feeling proud of myself.

Unfortunately, though, I cannot be specific in explaining why.

What I can tell you is that there was a very serious situation at my work that I became aware of and did something about.

It was really scary. Doing the right thing often is. In fact, my heart was beating so fast and hard in my chest, I could hardly get my words out while doing the "right thing".

But, I did it.

I did it because, in the end, for the well-being of my students I had to. I guess, in the end, I didn't see that it was much of a choice.

Hell may or may not break loose at my school in the coming weeks. But, the students will be out of harm's way, and that is the most important thing.
