Tonight's concert
All right all you choir singers; I'm attending the Spring concert tonight for the first time ever. I have a few students that I promised I'd watch their solos, and somehow I roped myself into going after that one. Honestly, I love singers. I think the gift that God gave them of singing is great. But, I can't sing. Therefore, it takes a lot of attention for me to sit there for a couple hours and listen to straight singing, no instruments for the most part; just singing. But, because I'm a great teacher (students who've ever had me, nod your heads at this point), I will "gut this one out". I'll sit on the aisle, just in case. One of my students today actually made me really think about my behavior about going tonight. She said, "Mr. Tyler, Heaven is a whole bunch of choirs and singing." I said, "yes, I believe that's true, but hopefully God will let me play guitar." I know that angels have perfect pitch, but I think even Jesus knows when He created someone who can't sing a lick. That someone, that would be me. God bless!

Too Funny.....hope it was an enjoyable night. You may never know this side of heaven what your attendance might have done for one of your students. They may want to be a teacher "just like you" someday, and you just taught them a lesson on "caring" outside of the classroom. May you never grow tired of teaching.
