My version:

“She discovered with great delight that one does not love one’s [students] just because they are one’s [students] but because of the friendship formed while [teaching] them.”

~Sarah Campbell’s Version for Teachers Inspired By Gabriel García Márquez from Love in the Time of Cholera

The original:

“She discovered with great delight that one does not love one’s children just because they are one’s children but because of the friendship formed while raising them.”

~By Gabriel García Márquez from Love in the Time of Cholera
