Not long ago I wondered how I could answer the question about my teacher's training honestly without complaining.
I just sat down and wrote down a list of concrete good things that happened to me today at school, and without long meditation I could name 13 (!!!) very concrete, very individual, very good things (and I don't mean things like I had enough to eat and nobody murdered me; which are of course also things to be very grateful for!)
So the honest answer is:
Everyday there are loads of good and fun things that happen! Well, yeah, teaching itself is not my favourite occupation, but can I tell you a cool thing that happened to me today...
I've thought that I had learned the lesson to be grateful in all circumstances a loooooooong time ago. But different situations reveal different hidden flaws.
Holy fire, burn away my desire for anything
that is not of you but is of me!
I want more of you and less of me!
Empty me and fill, won't you fill me with you!
