Unawarded-Hero
Quoted from Tuesdays with Morrie, by Mitch Albom:
"A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops." --- Henry Adams.
"A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops." --- Henry Adams.
As I remember, I once dreamed about being a kindergarten teacher. Actually, not just being their teacher, but also own the place.. ahaha..! I picture myself clapping hands together, dancing along, singing with an expression so that they would understand the songs. Got to draw, to tell stories, to play, play, and play.. It's wonderful just to imagine what it would feels like. To be honest, even I forget who is my kindergarten teacher.. Hiks, so sorry. :( I know that the "quote" above is absolutely true.
In my school years, I've had so many teachers, and those with 'one of a kind'.. I remember Pak Irwan and Pak Ukim, who amaze me for their ability to tell a story. They could make a scenery or a simple story seems like fun. Whatever conversation we had in class, they could make it alive. I envy people with such a talent. They had a treasure that no one can stole, a charisma.
On the other side, having strict or maybe called hot blooded teachers in school is not a rare case. I had them, not only to teach us, but also takes their blood--boiled. Hihihi.. Well, I'm not going to mention them here for sure... Of course, to respect them.
In my college year, discussion with my lecturer and/or teacher is getting more often because of the homework isn't the same with the one in school. The group or individual projects are made for us to make us be ready for next. In this time, I adore those smart and briliant teachers.. They helped me through, with the best knowledge and experience they had, and with the faith in me that I would be able to do all the things I do. That includes Alm. Ibu Linda, who happened to be my un-choosable but supportive personal support teacher that has been encouraging me to gain the best grades, just because she thinks I can.
And you know what? Surprisingly, I can! It's crazy for me to think that all she said would come true in a semester. I never thought that I could, like few of my friends could..
And... talking about the teachers of my life? This one is talking about everyone, about God, my family and friends, my bosses, seniors and peers, my rivals, my fail and success, my every single thing that happened that has filled my life. By knowing that, I know those influence me.
Well, I am just hoping the best and pray for my teachers out there, and I would love to thank them for all of the things they have done for me. May Allah SWT take good care of you. Amin.
