A side order of leather belts and blue onions.

Some things seem to have a detailed description but are not so appealing.

The chance of something vague and mysterious being just right can be a better bet. More, a better result.

You are the teacher they are looking for.

They may not know it yet. 

But one day they will thank you.

Yes they will!
