I'd have to say that the one person who inspires me most, other than Jesus of course, is my teacher. (Sorry, I don't think I should give names)
   So, as some of you may know, I go to a private school that consists of about thirty students, all ranging from 1st-12th grade in one classroom. We have one main teacher, and a secondary teacher, as well as a help in the morning.
    So, over the years I have seen what a wonderful and amazing woman my teacher truly is. She is so strong and brave and just purely astounding.
    I'm not gonna give any details, but right now her life isn't exactly a pretty picture. She's going through some tough stuff, stuff that when I first heard about, I was enraged towards certain personnel. Whenever I heard this person's name, I got angry gut feelings. Whenever I saw this person, I got major butterflies and wanted to punch them in the face (Which of course is wrong and not at all how you handle a problem).
    But she stayed strong through all of it. She tried to be joyful and tried to smile everyday. But sometimes she couldn't handle it. I mean, sure, you're gonna have bad days, but we have a few students who cause way more trouble than necessary, and that didn't help her case at all.
    I swear she's like a second mother to me, when she's happy, I'm happy. When she's upset, I'm upset, cause I just wanna see her happy.
    I appreciate her sooooo much! She does way too much for that school, with the tiny amount she's payed. I can't even begin to imagine how to thank her. She puts up with us every day. She's so forgiving and patient. Because of what she does and the things she goes through, it just makes me wanna behave better, you know?
    She has truly shown me what it means to be a woman of Christ. She is my example of how to react in situations. She has taught me to rely upon God for everything. She shows me how to love others, no matter what they may do. This woman is so unbelievably amazing.. I just.. Agh!
    She's too great!
    The Lord has blessed me with the best teacher possible, and I only hope to be like her when I reach her age.
    She is also really giving. This year for my birthday, she bought me the Lord of the Rings trilogy on dvd, along with a bag of Kit-Kats, because I do so much around the school. That was too nice of her, like I said, tiny pay.
    She is my biggest inspiration, and I hope to be an inspiration like that too. Thank you Lord for putting her in my life.

(Sorry this took awhile. I wasn't quite sure what to write when I first saw it, and then I just forgot. Excuse me for being all over the place, it's 8:41 a.m. and I have to be to work at 9, so I'm just kinda rushing through)
