A Career of a Green Leaf
    ----Writing on Teachers’ Day

        Without aims, one’s life is blind. Without struggle, one can never achieve great achievements. Without love, one is in dark. A teacher is kind of person who aims at enormous achievements and is never stingy at sharing his love with his students. The twenty-third Teachers’ Day has come. We can’t help saying the following lines to our teachers:
        Every day you go to sleep later than 12 p.m. and get up before 6 a.m. You have your own child, however, you have no time to take care of him (her). Classroom ---- Office ---- Dining room, there’s hardly any time left for you to cook for the family. It often happens, after having the remains of the lunch meal, your own child goes to attend evening reading. But you always make sure every student has a good meal. As the students are far from home, you act like mother and father!
        People often say, if a teacher wants to give students a bowl of water, he (she) needs at least a bucket of water. Factually, that’s far richer than a bucket of water! You yourself are a running stream, even a river! You are skillful to pass on unbelievable wonderful methods to your students so that you are sure your students have known the way to fetch water and that they have also become a scream or a river! You are not “a mountain to recite texts (having too much reciting burden for students)”, and you are never “the sea to do exercises (having too much homework)”! So as to avoid becoming “the mountain” or “the sea”, no one knows how much work you have done quietly and industriously. No one has any idea how much time and energy is spent dealing with school daily trivialities!
         In eyes of school authorities, you are one of able staff; in the students’ mind, you are an excellent kind-hearted mother and a stern father; to your dear parents, you are a good child. Seeing big smiles on your face, no one believes that you have borne too much burden, pressure and responsibility! When you fall ill, even you have been sick for months and years, you can hardly spare any time to go to see a doctor! When your child begs you to attend the school parents’ meeting, you, a teacher, have to ask other family members to go instead of you! What’s more, the moment your parent is passing away, you have no chance to see him/ her for the last time!
         Feelings are on the left side while love is on the right, and you are walking in the middle of the road! Every day you sow or plant, you go all out to cultivate and look after your young students, without wishing for any repayment!
         Though in most cases there’re no signs left in the sky, we know, you have flown across in the sky for your kids!
         The career of flowers is nice. The fruits are sweet and noble. You, indeed, are willing to be a green leaf. You simply remember one sentence: green leaves can set off red flowers and highlight the beauty!

Let my service be the service of the leaves in its shade of humble devotion.

This is the good description for teachers' devotion!
