FOREVER....and a day..

A Day i'll Never Forget

After a few days of being absent in the blogging world doesn't mean i've abandoned my writing..I've been very busy and lot of things happened to me this past few days. I’ve been fulfilled, happy and been hurt..

Although of busy schedule, and my sincere apologies for posting it just now, A Day i'll never forget, It’s not something one easily forgets, nor should forget, especially when whole country celebrating this one special day for our beloved and dedicated Teachers who play a pivotal role in our life starting from childhood to adulthood..Thank you for being my friend, a guide, and a mentor..

Last october 5, as we celebrate the World Teachers Day, is a facts reminder to everyone that we must understand the importance of teachers in our life, love and respect them..With the dawn of the internet age, student think that they get all the information from internet while they ignore the fact that such information may be incorrect or misleading. With this abundant information they think that teachers are not required anymore. But they do not realize that a teacher is not only a person who gives information but also is a mentor and a counsellor to us.

BUT, this day is also a facts reminder to all the Teachers that you must also understand the purity in your profession...
Teacher should not treat their teaching service just as any another job. Teaching subjects alone would not be the duty of a teacher. In today's world Information can be obtained easily by anybody; most of the information is available in internet. It is imperative that teachers should be up to date with knowledge and information. However you should be wise enough to deal with today's generation.You should understand their needs, make the students realize the importance of teachers; be their friend and a mentor. The children today face different problems personally, psychologically and physically. Being rational, straightforward, firm and kind would help gain their trust. Blind obedience is impossible nowadays and teachers should refrain from expecting the same from students. Teachers should also be aware of the mental health problems in children . You should also be aware of child abuse. You need to identify, help and understand the children regarding these problems. Their role has increased manifold with current generation. It is ur duty to increase their importance and appreciate them.In today's scenario with both parents working, the students mostly spend maximum time with their teachers. Therefore it becomes the responsibility of teachers to instill good moral values in students from their childhood.

Many studies indicate that the student teacher relationship is declining . Before, when education was considered as sacred and not as a business, students as well as parents had immense faith and respect for teachers. But now this has gravely reduced. It is because today's students view teaching as a job for which they pay in the form of fees. Education has become a medium for securing good jobs but not knowledge or well being of an individual. Being in a business world where money plays very important role today's students do not understand the sanctity of teaching profession...

Teaching is a vocation rather than a profession..They dedicated their lifes to make us well equipped to face the life with courage, shape our aims, dreams and goals..They act as the guide for life, show the path towards success and enrich the personality of their disciples by imparting ethical and academic knowledge. They bring out the untamed talents of their students and sharpen it in order to bring out the best results..They are considered as our ladders who help us to climb great heights..However they remain as ladders till the last.

NOW, on World Teachers Day, let us remember our teachers ,appreciate their work.Let teachers realize the importance and sanctity of their service. As we go into future let us not forget the basics of life such as morality, wisdom, knowledge, humility and goodness. It is the duty of the teachers to instill all these traits in coming generations. Most importantly parents need to help their children to understand the importance of teachers in their life with some real life examples of their own .Only when students have a great respect and regard for teachers, they can accept advice and discipline from them. Let each and every one of us remember to respect and appreciate teachers on this Teachers Day.

My heartfelt gratitude to all my teachers in "Saint Geronimo Elementary School", "Btac. Viejo National High School", and "Western Institute of Technology- Computer Engineering Dept." and "Philippines Women University" for guiding me, being my mentor, sharpen my knowledge, especially for bringing out the BEST n me...

"The best teachers teach from the heart, not from the book."

 "Happy World Teachers Day"
