¡¡¡Me quiero jubilar!!!
Este nuevo año 2025 es mi último año de servicio y aunque en algún momento de mi vida, juventud divino tesoro, creí que daría clases hasta ser muy viejita, hoy, a los 50 años, no solo la situación del país, de las universidades, también de los estudiantes, me obliga a repensar aquella decisión por demás idílica y altruista con la educación.
Sin embargo, con los años, no solo han mermado nuestros salarios, que rayan en limosnas; también, lamentablemente, la calidad de nuestros estudiantes. En la actualidad es más fácil encontrar estudiantes con ganas de no hacer nada, que aquellos que quieren progresar, que tienen sueños, que anhelan echar adelante. Y no creo que sea culpa de ellos. La realidad, esa que viven diariamente, hace que sopesen la idea de estudiar: ¿Cómo es que “fulanito” que nunca estudió y jamás se graduó de nada, hoy tiene un gran cargo en el gobierno?, piensan y la ecuación de estudiar para que progresen en la vida no les cuadra.
Mientras tanto pienso, que mientras existan estas condiciones paupérrimas de trabajo, mientras exista este gobierno que no le interesa la educación porque no le conviene un pueblo educado, mi espíritu, mi “alma” estará añorando jubilarme, aunque mi vocación de profesora, de educadora, respire en mí las 24 horas del día.
HASTA UNA PRÓXIMA OPORTUNIDAD, AMIGOS

Well, what I had never thought would happen, what I had even criticized many times to my colleagues, friends and family, happened. Today I woke up feeling like retiring. It is not an urge to eat something salty and then it goes away, that is to say: a craving. No. It is rather a spirit, a mood, rather a tiredness that little by little has taken over my body, like a maturity, like a thought that the more I have it, the happier I am: I want to retire.
This new year 2025 is my last year of service and although at some point in my life, divine treasure youth, I thought I would teach until I was very old, today, at the age of 50, not only the situation of the country, of the universities, but also of the students, forces me to rethink that idyllic and altruistic decision in favor of education.
In the past, I never cared about the economic benefit I got for teaching (although it was never enough), because the student talent, their desire, aspirations, dreams, were above any lack of salary. The students, as I let them know, were the engine that moved us, that inspired us to continue swimming in this sea as full of despair as of illusions.However, over the years, not only have our salaries diminished, bordering on handouts, but also, unfortunately, the quality of our students. Nowadays, it is easier to find students who want to do nothing than those who want to progress, who have dreams, who yearn to move forward. And I don't think it is their fault. The reality, the one they live daily, makes them weigh the idea of studying: How is it that “so-and-so” who never studied and never graduated from anything, today has a great position in the government, they think, and the equation of studying to progress in life does not fit them.
So, today, while I was with my retired friends, I thought that I had only one more Mother's Day to retire, a few carnivals, an Easter week. Thinking that made me happy, but I also felt sad because I do not hate my job: I hate the conditions in which I am working and that is different. How can I transmit passion to my students, if I have not lost it, how can I tell them that education is the only valuable inheritance they can take with them, if I am not even sure of that anymore?
Meanwhile, I think that as long as these poor working conditions exist, as long as this government is not interested in education because it does not want an educated people, my spirit, my “soul” will be longing to retire, although my vocation as a teacher, as an educator, breathes in me 24 hours a day.
