Express yourself to the world
I believe in being true to one’s thoughts and feelings. I remind this to my philosophy class everyday the same way my parents include my siblings and me in family discussions and encouraged expressing our opinions about our concerns at a young age. I tell whoever I face about their attitude, whether they are appreciated or needs improvement. If I do not know about something I ask to be taught, not nod my acknowledgement just because it was expected of me. I guess, that is why my students still keep in touch with me although they have passed my class years ago. I used to receive a dozen letters in a day. Now I answer text messaging but sometimes I do not get my message through the way I mean them because of the limited space. Snail mail was now replaced with e-mail but there is still time inconsistency of when my message will be received.
I got my solution recently, due to my aging eyes, I had to ask assistance from one of my students for my computer works. She then taught me to join chat online in case I needed her help when she is out. There is this http://www.wireclub.com that offers free chat rooms that can accommodate many people and many messages at any given time.
