History in the Bronx

I admire the History Channel sign as I travel in and out of the Bronx on a semi-daily basis. This is a fun spot, especially at this time of day. The river, coming home the water-way is always a stress reliever and today I sure needed it. Why not start off the week back to school with a bang? I wrote 4 referals to the dean today. Hurrah for children. I swear the things that come out of these kids mouths when they are speaking to teachers would make any older generations blood boil. It's crazy. I've never seen anyplace with a complete and total lack of respect for authority. I should not generalize, it is a few bad apples that spoil the bushel, but it doesn't matter who tells you point blank that they hate you (in so many words), it always has a glimmer of the same reaction. It's SO hard to deal with that while putting so much effort into carring.

Well, like I said, this scene, the setting sun, a reminder that there's a kind of beauty in the Bronx anyway, well that helps.
