Note of Thanks
March 24, 2013
Teacher Niña, I promised myself that I would send you a note…note of thanks but not of goodbye!
Thank you for sharing your talents and goodness of heart. Thank you for the honors you have brought to the school. My many dreams were realized with your expertise. Thank you for all the extras-
late sleep
tired mind and hands
countless lay-outs, etc.
All sacrifices for the love of work, passionately done!
God bless you wherever you’ll be. If you need a home, a family, come home to us. With love, we’ll always welcome you.
God bless you. If you’re happy, I’m likewise.
Love,
Teacher C
Reflection:
The old adage says, behind every man’s success is a woman. I say, behind every teacher’s success is a person of wisdom and integrity who trusted you without questions. Thus, I am grateful for the opportunity of meeting somebody who believed that there is nothing that I can’t do. That belief sprouted into something great and inspired me to live and leave with integrity.
“The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed after him.”
-Proverbs 20:7-
(When God Made Teachers is a series of articles adapted from my book. It encapsulates my experiences as a teacher and my journey of learning while teaching.)
