That Monday morning, I learnt a true lesson of life from a sweet little angel sent by God on this Earth, 'Child'. Though naughtiest kid of my class, he taught me a lesson that anger & stress leads us to nowhere. That morning, I was a bit stressed, an unmarried young girl pressurized by the family to marry soon can only understand & can relate to may pain. That stress built an anger in me & I reached the school with that bag full of anger. After wishing my colleagues I took a step ahead towards my classroom; there I saw this boy(my teacher) standing outside the class & making weird faces to others. At that moment, devil overtook my mind, & I burst out my anger on that child. The boy, without saying anything, went inside & sat down on his seat. I was ashamed & regretting what I did. I was feeling very guilty at that point & was avoiding any eye contact with the child. Suddenly he came up to me & said ' Ma'am, I am sorry, I will not repeat it again, please don't get angry at me & smile.' At that point, my heart stopped pumping, & I was talking to myself- " Oh ! What I have done......" & tears of guilt fell from my eyes. I hugged him & consoled him. So easily, he taught me that if you are feeling something, & that too from the core of your heart, just speak up & never feel shy of using the magic words, " Thank You & Sorry ". The person who admits his/her mistakes & works to rectify it, is a true human being. Now I keep anger & stress at home & come to school with a fresh mind & bright smile on my face.
