As long as
the life being a teacher is content, there is no need to be a politician. Sorry
for the wacky title. Teachers have been portrayed as ‘Gurus’ from the beginning
of time. They manifest the wise, the noble, the all-knowing saint, the living
encyclopedia or a walking dictionary. But are teachers politicians? Definitely
NOT! Then why is it that many a teacher manifests not the above theories but a
political animal? Perhaps, the profession is too obsessed with Adam Smith’s
theory on Economics-translate all work and energy into tangible hard currency.
I remember my Guru Jose,KC once told me, “you can never be rich as a teacher
and once you enter the sanctum sanctorum”. True to his words these days,
teachers are never rich unless one inherits family property or the spouse
belongs to a rich spoilt background. Spoilt in the sense-have you ever come
across a well behaved wealthy? All wealthy greet with money-pride with some
over- powering tone.
A teacher affects eternity,he can't say where where his influence stops |
It is my
unconditioned belief that stirs the very fabric of teaching that-those lads of
teachers whole are sound financially becomes the politicians in the sanctum
sanctorum. Utterly shocked? You should be! I too trembled in shock! These lads
are the ones that make your existence somewhat ‘incorrigible’ but thoroughly ‘corrupted’
with all worldly talks and gossips.
A citizen of this sanctum sanctorum once
told me, my child is sick at home and he’s serious. I as the teacher told her,
“but I saw him playing soccer last evening late into the evening”. This noble
citizen took my rather disapproving opinion to the real parent and came the
next day with something like this, “Hey, you told that my nephew is sick
because of soccer, he can even get out of his bed”, Then I raged, “Why is that
every noblewomen like you has to be right?” then I shut the citizen up. And yes
they are pretty comfortable with Adam Smith’s theory! Supposedly for being
someone related to her. Had it been someone else’s kid, who cares? This is the
consideration our noblewomen have-look out only for the one which is yours!
Citizens of
this sanctum sanctorum should teach, guide, mould and show us the light but
they would rather choose to take younger citizens to their side of the
light-adding maggots to the already rotting political corpse. The talks behind
back are always common where the ‘fairer’ sex majors in this sanctorum. It is
my poetic out flow that makes me mention this line, ‘Talks behind back-A deluge
of personal opinions pregnant with rumor and falsified facts’. Although, I wish
to mention all that is in my head but ‘haste makes waste’. I will let you know
as I promised-roar silently without a word from my mouth but another deluge
through this forum.
Until then, folks, watch out for some political nobles
around you. They might just as come in handy as it did with me. Good day ahead!
