"After all, you are JUST a teacher."

JUST a teacher. Heh.
I've had it with these people, talking like they have no brains to help them think. I've heard that line being uttered more than I could count, so finally I swore to myself that I will never let anyone who said that hurt me, not because I will always tell them back off, but mainly because I know for a fact that if any of these people becomes a teacher themselves, they will lick back every single ounce of words that they have spitted out of their smelly mouth.

Also, because what I've become now is the result of my own choosing. I believe I could have done hundreds of other things if I wanted to, so teaching was not my only option. But it was THE option that I have chosen.

But, when this exact line is uttered by someone who is related to you in blood, you can't help but feel the pain. And it feels like being stabbed by a salted, gritty knife.
