Two
years ago I wrote a small 2 A4 page sized article that I then planned to post
online on a blog.
It
was originally written in my handwriting while I was sitting in my college,
observing my tutor. The article was about how my tutor inspired me to work harder
in life to achieve my goals in life and reach at desired levels in life.
I
used to observe her in class and even outside, everything about her used to
excite me, her way of dealing with colleagues, addressing students, meeting
with people, teaching students, helping students with solving their doubts and
queries, etc.
She
is a very active person; she is reachable on email at any time of the day and
is very fast in her work approach. Her fast paced behaviour could give goose
bumps to most active people, as her charisma was amazing and people would just
get so much inspired by her all the time.
The
one thing that I saw was really unique to her was her smile. She smiled all the
time, no matter what she was doing. There wasn’t a moment in college or even outside
if I ever got to see her after college hours of before college hours when she
wasn’t in a happy and excited mood.
She
used to tell us students in class about how much she loves teaching and she
feels so blessed having teaching as her profession. May be her love for her
work used to make her smile, her positive approach and work ethics made her
really active whole day and so her charisma was so attractive that having her
around them would just inspire people.
The
article that I wrote about how much inspired I was by her, I never really
published online on a blog, It was just there in a large pile of documents, and
now over 2 years later I that article was actually written, I thought I would
share it with my tutor, although she doesn’t teach me anymore, I keep in touch
with her through emails and facebook.
So
I decided to share the article with her.
The
response I got was really overwhelming, it was so heart warming.
She
wrote: “She had tears in her eyes after reading the article, and that she never
really paid attention to her work manners and ethics” and she was really
pleased that as her student I was paying so much attention to her behaviour and
working style and was getting inspired by her without she even being aware of
it actually happening.
She
then thanked me for sharing that article with her, and said that she wished she
had every single student like me in her classes. I felt really good by reading
those words of her.
She
has been one of my most favourite tutor, and it is a sense of achievement that
a tutor (who is considered to be a godly figure in a person’s life) feels
grateful for having taught her student.
I
felt like I was in seventh sky that day. It was more of a heavenly experience
than anything else, as I always dreamt of making my teachers, my parents feel
proud of me, and here was this moment when my teacher, that too one of my most
favourite teachers, clearly said to me that she wished she had all students in
her class like me.
I
was able to feel those words by her and was able to picture entire situation
when she would have read my article and she had tears in her eyes and then she
would have felt really happy and she wrote back to me such a nice email back.
Undoubtedly
it felt amazingly great.
For
a moment, I recalled Steve Jobs famous words “Insanely Great” although he meant
insanely great computer machines, but I was feeling insanely great and content
from my within.
I heartily
thank God, my parents and my tutor for being there in my life and making my
life so much worth it. Had they not been there for me by my side, I won’t have
reached and become what I am today.
