nung nalaman kong hindi pinalaot sa dagat yung mga bagong teachers ngayong taon, naisip ko subra naman yun. apaka unfair-to the nth power.samantalang ako eh nasa dagat at nagbababad ng brief sa tubig alat. kaya sa sobrang lungkot, nagmunu-muni at nagbasa-basa muna ko ng naiwan ni kuyang book ni Francis J. Kong.
imbis na magpakalumo, naisip kong gawan ng sariling version ang acknowledgment niya.
i am thankful for....
--the chance to teach in bay school because it means i can wait and adapt
--the lesson plan and class records because it means i am capable of writing
--the noisy kids at school because it means i can hear
--the taxes and bills i have to pay because it means i am earning more.
--the alarm clock that rings in wee hours because it means i have work
--the clothes that don't fit because it means i have enough food to eat
--the boring seminars because it means i can still improve my skills
--the reports and deadlines because it means i am being trusted.
tulad nga ng madalas sabihin, life is a matter of perspective. kaya ngayon, okay na kahit nasa dagat ako. naeenjoy ko naman. isa pa, mas marami siguro kong matutunan habang nandito sa barrio :)
I am very much in awe at your dedication as a teacher. Saludo po ako. Nawa'y katularan ka ng maraming mga bata.
