Happy Teachers Day

Hey everybody

Just wanted to wish all the teachers out there a very Happy Teachers Day. As i am writing a thought echoes in my mind, "What is the significance of this day in our life"? or it is just another way of naming day for the sake of it?.

Once i was asked during a interview "Who is your favourite teacher?" and i said "my parents" without waiting for a single moment. The answer was well justified and i was selected. But the fact is that i don't even remember any of my teachers with much fondness, may be at school level or college level or PG level. It doesn't mean to demean the contribution of all the people at different level of education in my life but i simply mean that there was no a single character whom i can look up to as idol.

It leads to another interesting aspect of our life, Do we have sufficient number of True Teachers in India?. Given the population of more then one billion, we should have a good number but may be i was not fortunate enough to get the opportunity to find one.

Finally just a thought that i read somewhere that

"Time is the best teacher but unfortunately it kills all its students"
