a day's worth of memorable
is captured in
the seconds where

the class
clapped in unison to
celebrate the success of
one of their own

Dear Heng, this is such a wonderful example of solidarity, that it gave me goosebumps.

You should have many disciples of your methods of teaching, including sharing in the joy of another's success, thus avoiding envy ...

Highly enjoyed this one.

Love,
Margherita

I thought I replied to this yesterday!  Perhaps I lost my connection and didn't notice it didn't go through!

I love this poem for itself and for all it embodies.  That moment is the proof that you are exactly what a teacher should be!  Wonderful, Heng!  I know you will never lose that desire to spread goodness in the world, and I am grateful for that.  The world needs every bit it can get.
