In this October's LDS General Conference one speaker said that teaching is not the filling of a bucket but the lighting of a fire. When I heard this I thought of the story of Prometheus. Prometheus was a Titan who stole fire from Zeus and gave it to mortals. As a punishment he was chained to a rock and every day an eagle would eat his liver which would then grow back for the eagle to eat the next day.
I asked myself the questions, "How can I give my students fire? and What am I willing to sacrifice to do it?"
