Teaching , learning and everything in between

I have been teaching

I have been learning to teach

Learning that teaching is the best thing you can do

Learning that is it the worst

Learning that nothing can really be taught

And yet everything needs to be learnt

Learning that the seeds I plant

will on day be a tree

learning that things I choose to teach

are the things that make me really me 

Learning that teaching is more heart

and not so much the mind

And what you teach will not matter

Until you teach them to be kind

Learning that questioning everything 

is the most important thing that you'll teach

And you are not really a teacher at all

If you don't practice what you preach
