My Teacher, My Hero

     There are countless definitions of heroes today. A superstar who used his fame and fortune to help the needy in his hometown. A firefighter who sees no danger in all circumstances just to save lives of people. An Overseas Filipino Worker who is ready to bear the pain of being alone just to provide his family a comfortable life. 

      "There are heroes and heroines, national and local. Some of them are born, others are made. Many are still living while many others have long been gone. Monuments and museums were built to keep their memories alive in our hearts and minds. In the calendar important dates and events are usually marked red to remind us of their birth or death anniversary."-unknown But behind all these great people are strong foundations that guide, develop, and mold them all throughout. They are the teachers!

   They play a big and important role in our community   as   well   as   our    lives.    An EDUCATOR,                   ENTERTAINER, SUPPORTER, ROLE MODEL, ASSESSOR. These  are  only  some  of  the  role  of our teachers.

     What is the first thing that will come to your mind when you hear the word teacher? Is it lectures and new lessons or quizzes and assignment or sermons and jokes? Whatever your answer is, please do always remember that they gave us their time, to learn and to develop mentally, physically, and socially. They are here not only to teach, but also to love and care us. They are our second parents. They are also our friends with whom we can discuss any kind of problem. They are our inspiration to continue our journey. They are our lamp, which serves as our guide in the long road of darkness. Without them, we would have been lost. They shape the future of a child. And they are the ones who hold the candle of enlightenment, knowledge and prosperity.

    Today we have made so many great discoveries like man has landed on moon and mankind has given a new meaning to life and has found many ways to make human lives better. All this is happening because of education. And there can be no education without teachers; therefore, all credit goes to teachers. It is tribute to teachers who are enabling us to discover the vastness and secrets of life.
