my teacher, my hero..

We are now living in a modernized world, a world that has come to the eve of its futuristic existence-where almost everything is accessible with a click on your cellular phones, i-pods,laptops and all other gadgets that bring every bit of information right to your fingertips. Innovations come and go not only in the aspect of technology, but to all other aspects of life as well and even to the event of protecting and prolonging life itself. But do we ever think what lead us to all these comforts of daily living? All of these are products of a progressive, innovative and imaginative minds.
     Teaching as profession was indeed tagged as the noblest of all professions. For without teachers, there would never be other professions and perhaps, man is still evolving in the stone age. But how are our teachers being treated nowadays? Do we give them the respect that is due to them or do we just disregard all what they are sacrificing for us? As a student, I can honestly say that at first, I can't measure how I look up at my teachers. I have often looked up to them as my mentor, butas days go by, I can feel that they are also my second parents, for they do not only provide us with all the knowledge we need but they also ensure our safety while we are inside school premises. They even make sure that we are nurtured with values-to be of good morale and be good citizens in the furture.
     With all the efforts and sacrifices and with all the time they offer, which is much more that the time they spend inside the four walls of our classrooms, for they go beyond that especially during preparations for every competitions. All these are tasks that are not paid for bu their monthly pay checks. So now, I can clearly and proudly express how I look up onto them. For me, they are not only my mere teachers and mentors but indeed, they are my heroes. And I strongly believe that HERO would only be the suitable word to describe them and the most appreciated one as well.

This post is familiar. Is this really of your own? Because I think I've read this already.

But nevertheless, you're post is awesome.

That is a good point Danica, we are now living in this world full of materialism. Well, we should still be grateful to have our modern day heroes. :))
