Re: [ET2] Living Creatively At The Genius Level? (was Teacher Trauma)

Why the hell can't she have been day-dreaming in bed. I do it all the time. And not always in Sanctuary either :-)
I have lots to release on about the stupidity of teachers. I don't especially remember incidents of my own but I have a very poor opinion of them per se until I learn differently about any particular individual. No even flow there, then :-o

Blessings

  The teacher trauma that most stays with me was not actually mine. It was
  watching a ten year old girl in my class stand up to read her essay out loud (by
  command of teacher). She didn't get any further than the first line when
  the teacher interrupted her, shouting and belittling her in front of the class
  for her ignorance and stupidity. The first line of the story? "One night
  as I lay day-dreaming in bed ....." As I recall, the point the teacher wanted
  to make was only stupid people thought they could day dream at night. The
  fact that I remember it all so vividly some 50 years later, including the look
  on the child's face, I suppose says it impacted me too. I have often
  wondered if she ever had the courage to write another story. Shahzadi
