Οι φλόγες έζωσαν την Αρχαία Ολυμπία - Σώθηκε το Μουσείο
"Μεγάλωσαν" σ'αυτά τα μέρη, βίωσαν αρχαίες ολυμπιακές στιγμές, έβλεπαν την Ολυπμιακή Φλόγα να "ξεπηδάει" από τα μέρη τους κάθε φορά, που οι άνθρωποι την χρειάζονταν, και τώρα...ανθρώπινο χέρι - κατά πάσα πιθανότητα -τα τιμωρεί.
Γιατί;
Επιστρέφοντας σήμερα το βράδυ από Θεσ/νίκη και ακούγοντας στο ράδιο την είδηση ότι η πυρκαγιά έφτασε στην Αρχαία Ολυμπία, δεν μπόρεσα να μην φέρω στο νου την εικόνα των Γερμανών συναδέλφων και Γερμανών μαθητών να τρέχουν στο Αρχαίο Στάδιο και οι μη συμμετέχοντες στον Αγώνα να καθόμαστε ανέμελα στο γρασίδι και να τους επεφημούμε. Αυτό έγινε μόλις φέτος τον Απρίλιο. Το πράσινο γαλήνευε την ψυχή σου και ο ήλιος ήταν αρωγός στην όλη διαδικασία...
Θα μπορέσω άραγε να το ξαναζήσω;

'On the eighth day God created the teacher'
"On the sixth day, God created men and women. On the seventh day, God rested. Not so much to recuperate, but rather to prepare for the work ahead during the next day. For it was on the eighth day that God created the teacher.
This teacher, though taken from among men and women, had several significant modifications. In general, God made the teacher more durable than other men and women.
The teacher was made to arise at a very early hour and to go to bed no earlier than 11:30 each school, with no rest in between. The teacher had to be able to withstand being locked up in an air-tight room with 35 little monsters on a rainy Monday. And the teacher had to be fit to correct 103 term papers over Easter vacation.
Yes, God made the teacher tough but gentle too. The teacher was equipped with soft hands to wipe away the tears of the neglected and lonely student, of the 16 year old girl who was not asked to the prom and the 6 year old boy whose mom didn’t come to eat lunch with him when all the other parents did for parents’ day. And into the teacher God poured a generous amount of patience. Patience when a student asks to repeat the directions the teacher has just repeated to someone else. Patience when the child needs his shoe tied for the fourteenth time today, and patience when the kids forget their lunch money for the fourth day in a row. Patience when one-third of the class fails the test. Patience when the textbooks haven’t arrived yet, and the semester starts tomorrow. And God gave the teacher a heart slightly bigger than the average human heart. For the teacher’s heart had to be big enough to love the kid who screams, “I hate this class — it’s stupid!” And to love the kid who runs out of the class at the end of the period without so much as a good bye or a thank you. And to love the kid who throws up all over a desk, the kid next to him, and your brand new carpet — again. And lastly, God gave the teacher an abundant supply of hope. For God knew that the teacher would always be hoping. Hoping that the students would one day learn to spell, hoping not to have bus duty, hoping that Friday would come, hoping for a free day, hoping for deliverance.
When God finished creating the teacher, The Lord stepped back and admired the work just performed. And God saw that the teacher was good. Very Good. And God smiled, for when seeing the teacher, God saw into the future. God knew that the future is in the hands of the teachers.
And because God loves teachers so much, on the ninth day God created SNOW DAYS!"

Πλησιάζει η μέρα που θα διαβούνε πάλι οι εκπαιδευτικοί το σχολικό προαύλιο για να κατευθυνθούνε προς το σχολικό κτήριο και είπα να τους θυμίσω (στους άλλους αλλά και σε μένα), τι μας περιμένει, αλλά και τι μπορούμε να κάνουμε :-) !!!

Αγαπητό μου ιστολόγιο,
I AM BACK - ΕΠΕΣΤΡΕΨΑ!!!
Ναι, τα κατάφερα! Μετά από σχεδόν 1 μήνα παραμονής μου στο εξωτερικό (Ιούλιο) και 3 βδομάδες με τα ανηψάκια μου (τέλος το ντάντεμα ... για τώρα) είπα να επιστρεψω στη "βάση" μου και να διαβώ το "αυλάκι" :-), για να πραγματοποιήσω και την θερινή μου υπηρεσία στο σχολείο :-(...
Δεν περίμενα να μου λείψεις, αγαπητό μου ιστολόγιο, αλλά συνέβη κι αυτό.
Το ξέρω, έχασα πολλά: τον καύσωνα, τις πυρκαγιές, τον πυρετό των Εκλογών, αλλά νομίζω ότι θα το αντέξω!
Η ζωή συνεχίζεται....
