There is something prominent in a teacher’s life. A teacher plays a part in anybody’s life. An individual is moulded and cultured by a hundred of teachers before he becomes somebody. Though, it is not yet what I mean as something prominent in a teacher’s life.

There is something indeed prominent in a teacher’s life. It is the lovely and lively world that composed the entire of a teacher’s being and life. The teacher’s role is to serve the batches of young people from generation to generation; yet unknowingly, we teachers are even being rendered services by the thousands of so young and innocent but lively people we mingle with the whole day through five days a week.

The greetings and stories, the smiles and the yells of young so pure and chaste could effortlessly wave aside life’s issues as trivial details that could be battled that easy. Those salient features facilitate every classroom teaching-learning situation. The young people countenance revealing the Tabula Rasa Theory of being that soft and fragile and being handled with so much care and delicacy gives life and energy to the teacher facing the mounting paper works and reports.

Lively countenance of the young softens even the toughest burden of pending bills and expenses. The once unbearable crowd of blowing winds and smoke of difficulties to move on could fade away and much more be prevented by the cheers and hurray of tiny lips in chastity. They can make teachers laugh and play with life. Teachers feel satisfied and young at heart. Yes, students can do magic in a teacher’s heart.
