Teacher's teacher

In times of great distress we utter things we really regret after giving it much thought. We forget most of the time that "much is expected from people who receive much". Who are these persons we label as having received much and from whom?

They are the achievers who go through every undertaking with ease. Sometimes they develop the talent to excel through the help of tutors or keen follow-up from supportive parents or sponsors.

Then there are the generic geniuses who just astound us with their inherent gifts of excellence that even the ones concerned cannot claim it to come just from their own genes. This is an instance of pure gift from the Almighty which we cannot question but just acknowledge.

Then, also included are the teachers and other servants of the law who are given the mission to "lift up" the minds of the young and hopefully someday, the young will take their rightful place in society and take care of the world in turn for the perpetuation of mankind.

Then there is in fact every man and woman of whatever race, status or culture from whom a unique gift has been bestowed by the Maker from whom each one of us ultimately will go home to. To each of us therefore, much is expected for each of us has received much.
