I am late to post this but I had a reason. I do not want to write anything that does not come from my heart. My blog is replica of me so it has to be around what I feel and write!
It was Teacher’s Day yesterday and I thought what is the definition of a teacher for me? I saw so many of my FB friends posting on their walls and making this day special for their teachers – all those who made them what they are.
I am confused. Why?
For me my teachers are the best thing that happened to me as they helped me to be what I am today but I take this day somewhat different from others. Life is the best teacher for me as it taught me millions of things and I owe my thanks to all those who were, are and will be part of this journey called LIFE as somewhere they helped me to grow and learn. In short they have been like teachers to me through the best teacher called ‘LIFE’.
From parents to relatives, from friends to enemies, from doctors to medicines, from husband to daughter, everyone has taught me something. HOW?
Parents taught me to be independent and live by earning myself. They give me the lesson to trust and love. They taught me the patience to be a mother. They taught me to sacrifice for others. They helped me to understand what is required to make a family and relationshipJ
Teachers taught me to struggle and give the best of you. Their teachings helped to climb the stairs of life with a simple learning – ‘No Pain No Gain’
Friends taught me to love unconditionally. They taught me what is the meaning of words like help and understanding? They made me realise how to feel special and make others feel special. They gave me an umbrella when I had no shelter. They helped to cry and smile when nobody was there. They taught me what is called ‘LOVE’?
EnemiesJ taught me how to deal with the situations when you are called names and much more. They taught me how to swallow harsh words and situations in a polite manner with a small answer ‘Anything Else You Wanna Say To Me’. This is my response to all the names I have been called till date. They taught how to forgive and forget. They taught me I am no great. They taught me how to trust and whom to trust. They taught me life is not only bed of roses but iron rust. They taught me how you feel when you heart is broken and you still smile for others to be happy but those others turned to be your biggest enemies.
Doctors taught me how to ignore problems and move on with a positive mind.
My husband and my daughter make my family and they complete me. They taught me that they are happy if I am happy. They taught me that Love is about Giving not Receiving!
So somewhere all the people I have met in life are my teachers. I owe my wishes of Teacher’s Day to all of themJ
That’s my way of taking this day. Learn from every instance of life to know that it is your best teacher.
