Though the World
Teachers day is celebrated on 5th October, India observes THE DAY on
5th September in order to mark the birth of Dr.
Sarvepalli Radhakrisnan the first Vice-President and the second President
of the Independent nation.He was an eminent academician and an exquisite
teacher of all times.
The day
is dedicated to the teachers who play a prominent role in a person's life; in
institutions it is celebrated in different ways like honoring the teachers,
planning a get together etc. One of the different way of celebrating the day
that I had come across is by being a teacher myself on this day, it was a
great opportunity, though
we prepared for more than a week, when I stood on the podium in front of my
juniors, I did posses the flying birds feeling in my stomach, and I did wonder
how they stood in front of the students flawlessly for so many hours
continuously everyday, now its a memory to cherish.
In my views everyone is a
teacher and a student of life as well, as everyone do inspire at-least a soul,
but everyone are not referred to as "teacher", only ambrosial ones who consume
themselves to light the way for others are!.
When we were little they sowed the seeds of knowledge...
they held our hands and thought what dreams are and to convert them to a reality as Dan Rather said " the dream begins with a teacher who believes in you, who tugs you and pushes you to the next plateau, sometimes poking you with a sharp stick called truth."
They taught us A-Z, they thought us to say Yes and No, they taught us to
choose, they taught to solve problems, they taught us to make decisions, they
taught us literally everything... the small things when put together make this world.Actually they
thought us the ways to decipher the world.
They taught us to heed our clairvoyance and do what we want to without pushing anyone else in queer.They taught us to make our own path and learn when we stumble and to raise again and walk rather than giving up.They thought us be versatile as there are so many things worth trying which may fascinate us and make us smile.
So I would say
"They are the ones who modified the caterpillars in to butterflies."
PS:This is an essay of admiration,
adoration with gratitude with the brightest smile I could conjure as a teacher
has had an effect on me more than any one.
Happy Teachers day!!
