Dear Teacher,
I hope that you all are in the pink of your health!
This day, today, when I close my eyes and reminiscence
my days gone by, I would like to pay obeisance to one and all of you who have,
in various earthly forms, been an influencer in shaping me into what I am
today.
You, my dear teacher, I have met at every moment of
life, where you have made concerted efforts to engrain in me the values, ethic
and discipline that will hold me in good stead and the knowledge which will
make me a responsible social and professional character.
The beauty of this whole interactive experience
between you and me, surprisingly, have taken place more frequently and
influentially outside of the four walls called a classroom. Beyond the
classroom, you have met me as my mom, my dad, my sister, my brother, my wife, my
friend, my colleague, my boss, and now, more importantly and recently, as my
daughter!
You have diligently made efforts to inculcate within
me the values and virtues of discipline, respect and trust through tangible and
intangible knowledge.
I hope, today, as I stand before the world, I am able
to make you feel proud of your efforts.
Today, I seek strength from one and all of you, to give
me the ability to impart those values, ethics, discipline and knowledge to my
daughter which will help her in good stead in her yonder years!
Though it may seem a little clichéd this day, I still
would like to convey my heartfelt Thanks on this wonderful Teacher’s Day.
May you all have the power to bestow your blessings to
one and all of your students!
With best regards and Love,
Rajib Bhattacharjee
