A MENTOR FOR LIFE

Dear Maestra and Maestro, Teachers, you've been associated with incandescent light for a very long time. A blazing torch, pulsing with knowledge and passion to shine light into what appears to be a cold, dark night. No dreams, no stars in the sky. It's like getting a warm hug or a pat on the back while being told, "You can do this. Try once more. You are the lighthouse that sheds light on the potential outcomes of a young child's desire to climb a tree.

You are the ones who were designed to bring together those who are aspirational and our success. You are the ones who created the fuel for the minds of today's future. those who paved the way for a variety of aspirations. Children have been cradled and raised by you as though they were your own. A selfless tree, dependable and giving. It is such a noble cause, such a noble profession, to be able to teach young minds and help us navigate our ways throughout this fast-paced world as we slowly come to terms with civility and adulthood.

You have imparted to us a great deal of invaluable academic and life teachings through long sighs and colorful evenings. Despite how small it may have been at first, you saw potential in us. I would want to express my gratitude for your unselfish dedication and passion through this letter, which is written with the utmost admiration and respect. Even if you might just be seen as a collection of alphabets, you have a genuineness that no number of material things will ever match.

Much Love, Ashryne Anne
