What is the best profession in the world?
The best job in the word can be done by everyone.
The doctors can do it.
The lawyers can show it.
The accountants can practice it.
The engineers can manage it.
The businessmen can make it done.
Our parents can do it everyday.
You can even do it.
It’s the profession of Jesus Christ, Muhammad and Buddha.
Being a teacher is the best career of them all.
But I’m not just talking about being the one inside the classroom.
I’m speaking of people who teach people to make their lives better.
I’m referring to persons who cause change inside and out the classroom.
The doctor can heal your sickness, but may not heal your lifestyle.
The lawyer can defend you in the court, but may not correct your path.
The accountant helps your business life, but not your personal life.
The engineers can build you a house, but may not build you a home.
The businessman can sell you goods, but may not tell you how to produce them.
But they can always learn how to teach and become fishers of men.
Doctors, lawyers, accountants, engineers, they can always become teachers.
Teachers are found inside and outside the school.
Their teachings can be found in the books, magazines and on the Internet.
Their voices extend to hundreds, thousands and even millions of people.
Their lessons live for decades, centuries and even for thousands of years.
Teachers make leaders, heroes, lovers and also teachers.
They form the future; they shape the generation after generation.
They will teach you how to achieve real success and happiness.
They will give you light and the way to life.
That is why I tried to write this piece to learn how teach you something.
So whoever you are and whatever you are… share your knowledge.
Share your wisdom, insight and understanding.
Be a teacher and light this world.
Whether you’re a doctor or a lawyer, you can always practice teaching.
You don’t need a license to teach and share your piece.
You don’t need to expect money to share your heart and mind.
You just need to care about helping and saving others.
You need to learn the sense of sacrifice and greatness.
You need to realize your inner duties and responsibilities.
So start teaching now, and teach your first student – you.

A salute to all the teachers! 🙂
“A good teacher is like a candle: it consumes itself to light the way for others.”
