There
is a saying that a man without an aim in life is like a ship without a rudder.
We all know that a ship without a rudder faces danger. In the same way, a man
without an aim in life cannot reach his goal. Therefore, each person should
have a definite aim in life. This aim in life varies from person to person,
society to society, and country to country. Besides, it depends on one's taste,
liking, and surrounding environment.
Someone
wants to be a doctor, someone wants to be an engineer and someone wants to be
an officer. Like others I also nourish an aim in life. My aim in life is to
become a teacher in future life. It is undoubtedly a difficult task to fix an
aim in life. I also faced much problem to fix my aim in life. At long last I
had been able to fix my aim in life after a lot of thinking and analysis. Of course,
I had specific reasons for my choice.
The
first reason in favour of my choice is the belief that man is a lifelong
student in the lap of nature. There is no end of knowledge and this hunger for
knowledge haunts me madly. The second reason for my choice is the belief that
it is mother of all professions. Everybody, high ranking and low ranking, civil
and military officials, are taught by teachers. What they are today is the work
of a teacher.
What
I want to be might astonish my parents, friends, and relatives. Because in this
age of high competition everybody is in favour of being a doctor, an engineer,
a civil or military officer, or a big business magnet or executive. All these
professions give people authority and wealth to exercise. But I believe that a
teacher is needed everywhere and thus can play a great role everywhere. Above
all, it is a noble profession
A
good teacher is an asset to the country undoubtedly. He moulds the young minds
of the students. He inculcates in them the sense of patriotism, religion,
values, morality, social service, etc. He is a model to the students. He is to
be followed by the students. A good teacher can build up good citizens whom the
country badly need for its overall development. Though, in outward appearance,
he leads a very simple life, he is full of high thoughts and ideals.
Sometimes
I feel sorry for the economic plight of the teachers in our country. Sometimes
it seems to me that the teachers are the objects of pity. Many high level
officials and politicians play with their fate. They are not ready to accept
and evaluate the service of the teachers. Though they mention teachers as the
architects of nation building in their speech, they look down upon them. Until
and unless teachers are respected and given due honour in the society, the
country will not develop.
In
the developed countries, even in our neighbouring country India, teachers are
highly respected and well paid. Traffic police salute them when their cars
cross them. However, I strongly believe a teacher is the architect of nation
building though some negative aspects of this profession pains me. Lastly, I
want to be a teacher and I will remain
happy remaining a teacher.
