Each of us has a burning candle in our life. He is our teacher. Yes, the teacher is like a burning candle. It burns and spreads light around. Others will enjoy this light. For this reason, every person, regardless of age, position, and level, always bows before the teacher-coach who taught him. The works of our teachers are incomparable and unique.
It is no exaggeration to say that the fact that October 1 is widely celebrated as “Teachers and Coaches’ Day” since 1997 by the decree of our first President Islam Karimov is a vivid expression of our nation’s respect for teachers and coaches. We can even see this clearly in the political process-referendum that took place in our country this year. That is, in one article of our Constitution, the authority of our teachers has been raised to the highest level within the law. The head of our state described the teachers and coaches and said, “If the biggest school is among the buildings of the world, then the most honorable of the professions is teaching and coaching.” “A teacher is truly a dignified person who not only brings grace and wisdom into the classroom, but also gives the memory of goodness to thousands of young souls, and truly gives his students the school of life,” he said.In fact, teachers hold a pen in our hands from the time we are young, sow seeds of goodness in our path and lead us to the path of knowledge.
We always love knowledgeable people, don’t we?! Indeed, a well-educated, knowledgeable, intelligent person always understands, respects, and is always at the mercy of others.I remember when I was a little girl, my mother took me by the hand and took me to school. I still remember how my teacher hugged me and welcomed me with open face, looking better than his own daughter. They said that if you put a pen in my hand and always follow the path of knowledge, heaven is yours if you become a learned girl, and now, along with my teacher, I have been given the honor of being a teacher by God.If we made a mistake, our teacher would carefully correct our mistake and explain to us one by one what is right and what is wrong. Years passed, we did not notice that the whites of chalk fell on our teacher’s hair.
Even in his anger, our teacher had compassion for us. Our teacher never jerked us, if we make a mistake, find a reasonable solution for everything. They always spared their knowledge to make us good people. Even if we ask our teacher for advice on a vital issue, then our teacher would extend his helping hands without sparing. Even the step of our teacher in class was an education for us. When our teacher entered the class, there was always a smile and sincerity on their faces. Our teachers were more happy about our success than their children’s success. During this conversation, I remembered a legend.
According to him, the famous commander Alexander Rumi was asked: “Why do you honor Aristotle more than your father?” Alexander Rumi answered: “My father supposedly brought me down from heaven to earth. However, my teacher Aristotle raised me from earth to heaven. That is, my father caused me to come into the world. My teacher taught me knowledge and manners, and caused my rank and honor to increase.” It can be seen from these words that the people who made the world happy with their knowledge and enlightenment always highly valued their teachers and respected them.My grandfather used to say, “My daughter, every time you pray, first of all, pray for your parents, then for your teacher, and for those who came after you. If you have any problems in your life, please your parents, if you are not learning, please your teacher do it” they said.
There is only one profession in the world – teaching. The rest of the professions are its derivatives. Really, don’t take every field, first of all, we all become apprentices to someone to learn this work. We learn the secrets of the profession from our teachers. During this study, we feel the love of our teacher like a river. Everyone loves their child. But not everyone can love someone else’s child and educate him. For this, a person must have a truly pure heart.
In conclusion, it is appropriate to say that we should always receive the prayers of our teachers! Let us always honor them, stand in their constant service, and make their hearts happy. May our teachers, who are always the sun of the heart, be happy for us! After all, there is a teacher who says that the world is bright.
