And to remember my students. To see them as people. People like me - I was an undergrad once too. I am feeling like I am getting to know them. And that makes teaching more enjoyable. Even if I am doing what I am doing now for the rest of my life (teaching first years) - I do enjoy that. While it is true I would prefer to be doing research, it is also true that I love philosophy and teaching it is the next best thing. And not just second best. I can learn from my students. And I feel like I have discovered the enjoyment in that again.
