I Carry the Light Even though they mostly make Fun of Me by their Uncharitable Jokes •••

But I am a Teacher •••

I don’t Qualify for a Bungalow or a Villa nor Earn enough to buy an Expensive House or a Car like Corrupt Officers and Corrupt Politicians.

But Yes, I am a Teacher •••

Some Think or even Say that I have too many Holidays. They never know that I Spend those Holidays either correcting Papers or Planning what and how I am going to Teach when I go back to Blackboard or Whiteboard …

Because I am a Teacher •••

Sometimes I get Confused and even get Stressed by the Ever-changing Policies over what and how I have to Teach …

Despite All That, I am a Teacher and I Love to Teach and I am Teaching •••

On Pay-days I don’t Laugh as Corrupt Officers and Others do, But by the Next day I Love to come with a Smile to those that I Teach …

Because I am a Teacher •••

The main Source of My Satisfaction is when I see them Grow. I See them Succeed. I See them having all those Assets. I See them Bravely Face the World and its Challenges. And I Say yes I have Taught in Spite of Living in a World Opened by Google…

Because I am a Teacher ••• Yes I am a Teacher •••

It doesn’t Matter how they Look at Me, It doesn’t Matter how much more they Earn than I Do.

It Doesn’t Matter that they Drive while I Walk because All what they have is through Me, A Teacher …

Whether they Acknowledge Me or Not … I am a Teacher ….
