Teachers

All teachers teach, but not everyone teaches and those who teach not necessary able to deliver the message accordingly. We can find teachers in school, but also in the circles around us, for it is not a must to be a teacher before we can teach. Those who understand may not be able to teach and those who can teach may not understand what they are teaching. A simple theory with the simplest definition can sometimes be deadly, when we fail to interpret the meaning and when the channel is not right. Perhaps each and every one of us is a teacher, not realizing that we actually have students learning from our mistakes and from their own, that we are teaching them the lessons in life, chapters which we can never find in the books. Down the journey of life off we go, we find ourselves home and from one checkpoint to another, we get ourselves teachers, be they the teachers in school, a friend in the circles or even strangers by the roadside; it does not matter who they are or where they are from, as the most important fact is that we have learned, from the teachers who may not be teachers.
