He thought you'd cheated on a writing assignment; that you’d plagiarized. So he made you write in front of him, and you did. And he read it, and he said something like, "You may go."<br /><br />You taught a curmudgeon he wasn't always right... but maybe he was trying to teach you something else. Maybe he saw you didn’t trust yourself and tried to make you see you had some talent. Maybe he knew you wouldn’t learn his lesson; to trust in yourself. Maybe you were both right and both wrong. And that’s actually an epic poem in my pocket.<br /><br />---Roommatejashttp://openid.aol.com/jasonscsnoreply@blogger.com
