was thnkin bout somethings lar..
goin through some memories, ;P hav alot of gd ones this year
oh ya.. teacher's day comin soon, how?
i think there's a teacher i kno tt dreads teach's day... kinda weird, no?
i saw ths stor durin a church serivce
There is a story about a foreign person who was working in Central Africa. This teacher had taught a group of native people about the Christmas story and about the wise men. He told them the story of how the wise men had travelled hundreds of miles on foot from ‘the east’ and how they had searched and walked for more than two years in their search for the baby Jesus. He told them about the gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh, but he explained that the real gift was the walking for hundreds of miles for two years. One young boy heard the story. One day, this boy disappeared from his tribe and was gone for more than two weeks. He finally returned with a gift for the foreign man. His special gift was a beautiful shell. The man asked the boy where he found that shell. “I have never seen such a shell my whole life.” The boy replied, “I have walked to the Great Sea, and it is only in the Great Sea that this shell is found. Long walk part of the gift.”
okay.. even though this story is about givin
i had a diff reflection this time round ,
i feel tt teacher's r reali amazin ppl...
they 'waste' their youths 2 teach and mould students 2 b btr ppl
but yet, nt always e students know , or even bother 2 appreciate
teachin is nt an ez job, these ppl who give up so much of their time 4 this career
some even go e extra mile, nt juz teach u 2 learn
but also teach u 2 live
yeah... some things dun turn out... then some thngs happen 2 clash wif others..
mayb e course or trip reali impt , but cnt go
or veri exp...
then become like, those tt r less 'deservin' go
then seems ver unfair rite?
but hor..
juz thnk this way..
those tt can go, they will hav fun rte?
will they learn?
will they grow up 2 b btr than me?
can they gain nt juz knoweldge but also moral values?
then its like, these ppl r doin it 4 us,
n we'll 4get them soon,
yet, they put so much effort ,
do we reali deserve it?
can we prove 2 them tt w r worth their efforts?
teacher's day is nt a day 2 give presents n say nice things juz 4 1 day
its a day 2 rmb tt these ppl r there 4 us
teacher's day approachin 2 :)
u ready?
can u celebrate it sayin ,
cher,
thanks,
i reali had a meaningful time wif u
happi teacher's day
