Be a Hero: My Digital Story

Digital Story

I typically choose not to share much of my personal life. Perhaps it is because there has been so much trauma and sharing brings up emotions I'd rather not think about.

However, the events that occur in our lives also occur in other people's lives. Our story can serve as inspiration to others who may be experiencing challenges or similar circumstances (Lambert 2013). I chose to share a story about how I became a teacher.

Teaching is more powerful than most people realize. It impacts students, their families, and most of all, those who teach. Becoming a teacher saved me from a life of monotony. Teaching also gave me joy and taught me that love is the most powerful gift of all.
