What is a single Jolly Rancher worth?
not much....maybe a few pennies
Yet, it depends on how you come to get that Jolly Rancher...
Walking down the hallway of a school crowded with children...
A 5th grade boy giving you a hug and handing you a Jolly Rancher out of his coat pocket.
"Why are you giving me this Jolly Rancher"
"Cause you are the best"
"Oh thank you, I think you are the best."
Not sure why or when he decided to give me that Jolly Rancher- probably just popped into his head at that moment, but....
This is a boy with emotional problems.
This is a boy whose family lives with others with no place to call their own.
This is a boy who gets picked on daily.
This is why I wanted to teach...
This what makes the hard days worth it....
So this one Jolly Rancher- it is priceless
