I was so ordinary that there was always so much to fill
I was so ordinary that my urge to know never fulfilled
It was destiny, not desire, that I became a teacher
When I became a teacher
I did not want my students to know that I was so ordinary
I wanted my students to excel
I am happy that I got more from my students than I could give them
My students are now my teachers
It feels good that an ordinary can become a good teacher
I am happy that I was so ordinary
