THANK YOU MA'AM...dedicated to my teachers :)

This one is for all the beautiful ladies who have taught me at school & college, the basics of subjects like English, Geography, Science and Economics and today more about the depth of life, the list is not very long but the contribution of each and every teacher has been very significant…

The first one Nalini ma’am. One the lady who I look up to today and she’s what courage means when it comes to a women, she and I haven’t met in years going to be a decade soon, but her spirit and outlook towards life makes me further proud that she was my teacher once and why was, she is… even today I learn so much from her each day and I would thank facebook where I found her years later and at a glance recognized her and I’m connected to her; even though being miles away from her I somehow am able to live every moment that she shares with us, I love to be there when she smiles and cries, may it be a news of new laptop or Kabir’s new drawing, though I have never met this little guy Kabir, still I seem so connected to him when she shares little things about him, his achievements , his new habits, even when he falls sick, or when some stupid people ask stupid questions about him, I mean it’s so strange how well I connect to Kabir even when I have never met him in person but still I feel like I have known him all my life. Ma’am taught me a lot about life one thing that she taught me is how we strangely connect to people we have never met and we somehow start to care. I remember when ma’am came to my school I was in 7^th standard her little things made me found of her way of teaching and her too. In my life so far I have never met someone like her full of life, I learnt from her how little things in life matter a lot, during hard times never to breakdown, ignore the foolish people around and cherish every moment to its fullest, I learn so much sometimes from her, sometimes through her blog. I know it’s been very long that I have seen her but I really want to meet her in person not when I tell her “ma’am I’m coming”, but just see her somewhere and go to her say “Ma’am Remember me”… I really want to see ROCKSTAR KABIR that what I call him ‘cause he never seizes to surprise us with his brilliance and I want to play with him, and one day I will… so I will just like to say THANK YOU MA’AM for all the things that you taught me and teach me everyday… Thank you so much.

Second teacher who I really want to thank is Ma’am JAIRAM, the lady who I’ll never be able to understand, she’s too simple yet so complicated for me, many times she gives me advise when I seek for it and I have to admit that I have read … read… reread her advice many times till I finally understand what her simple words meant and when I do, that day I’m left with a new thing that I learnt about life, from a amazing woman,  I think that simple ‘thank you’ has never been able to define itself how fruitful her advise has been for me. For Ma’am Jairam I’ll always remember her, she taught me science when I was in my 6th standard then she left, I remember she once said in our class “ one day when you all will grow up you might she me somewhere with my bag made of used clothes and say that my teacher Mrs Jairam.” Another thing that reminds me of her was that, ‘she always used the same pen and only replaced its refill with a new one once it finished.’ As I said a simple woman, very simple indeed, one of my teachers who always teaches me something. So THANK YOU ma’am… for everytime blessing with me with your advise whenever I needed it. This is just to tell you that your advise and your words have always taught me a new thing and I hope next time when i say thank you, you will know I really mean it…Thank you so much ma’am.

3^rd teacher who I’ll never forget is Mala Ma’am, she was the class teacher when I went to a new school in standard 6^th. She was the favorite teacher of the entire class, she saw the entire class as equal, never discriminated and in a brief times of 2 years she left school in the middle of 7^th standard. There were many sweet memories as a class we had with her and we really missed her once she was gone but her sweet smile and her words that I always remember when she used to scold a student our class and use to say “Do another thing Sameer and I’ll run to star chart and give you 2 black stars.” J Her sweet sarcastic scolding, and her final goodbye party in the class where she danced with each one of us, today makes me smile as I drown myself into the pool of memories. She always was there to short out our today stupid but that time big problems, from personal to class matter and internal disputes, she always somehow managed to get the class one as a whole. Mala ma’am  she might not remember me very now but I’ll always remember her as a teacher who made me adjust in that whole new school. Thank you ma’am J

4^th teacher that I wanna thank is Smriti  Ma’am.  she and I never had much conversation, I was just another student in class for her but she taught me one thing that I what to thank her for. when I was in 9^th standard back to my old school on teacher’s day, I gifted her a hand made bunny card with a poem written especially for her by me, it was the first time I ever wrote something and gave it and she praised me for it being very good, it meant a lot to me because I hated sharing my piece of poetry with anyone and giving it was a big thing for me ‘cause I’m too possessive about my poems and every single creation of mind even today, but because of her now I’m able to gift a poem to the people I love, especially written for them by me. Her little appreciation pulled me to cloud nine and  So i thank you ma’am…with you little words of appreciation now I have a collection of over 190 poems, well kept and safe…Thank you.

 Two teachers who were more like a friend than teachers Manju ma’am and Zehra Ma’am these two teacher who were there during my last 2 years of school life, they both were more of friends than teachers and I think because of them I quite enjoyed my school life at its end. So thank you teachers.

Last two my current favorite teachers Ma’am BOSE and Ma’am TANDON, how should I thank them for all the way they taught us during our college, Hats-off to both these teachers and salute to their commitment.  There wasn’t a day that Ma’am Tandon and Ma’am Bose will miss taking their classes; class strength never mattered much ‘cause I have studies alone many days and I never saw them hesitate teaching only a child. They always were ready to solve our problems related to subject any time any where all around the campus. I thank both of them for their help and guidance. Two of the teacher that are added to my thank you ma’am list … so thank you teachers… Thank you so much.

One more teachers I’ll like to thank Ma’am GHOSH who taught me how to write A,B,C…1,2,3… the basics of the language I am writing in, my KG teacher Ghosh ma’am. Thank you ma’am

At last how can I forget to thank two teachers because of whom I am who I am today my MUMMY and PAPA. They are the building block of my foundation, they are the one who taught me how to thank all the teachers above, they are one who taught me basics of what a being a human being , they inculcated the values and ethos in me, which make me thank all of you above today, so how can I forget to thank my first teachers MY PARENTS… thank you mummy-papa, for helping me be the person I am today, for helping me learn for my mistakes and move ahead with it, though I know I will never be able to say these words to you but somehow I know ,you both know I am thankful to you. 

  

All are beautiful people who have taught me something in every stage of my life. Some were there when I was a little kid learning the basics, some were there during the my growth stage and few them have stayed till day with me, so just thank all of you for all the things that I learnt from you…THANK YOU and this one is for all my teachers who I have ceased to mention but I know they have taught me something or the other every now and then. SO I JUST THANK YOU ALL  and this is DEDICATED TO MY TEACHERS.    

 

(i hope no one has a problem with me writing the names...)
