The Illusory Nature Of Life



         In theory, we are all aware that life is a mirage; nonetheless, fools as we are, we still run after it. We think we can get everything we want from life. In fact, we can’t get anything at all for one thing: it is naturally illusive. All its pleasures are not only temporary, but they are dreamlike as well, so why bother killing oneself for illusive momentary pleasures. Life’s temptation and seduction are so powerful and unbeatable that they can wipe out expectations and dreams cold bloodedly. Therefore many prudent people simply choose to seize the day.

          You are told that life is short, and you are advised to enjoy every single moment of it. This motivational advice is worth taking; however, are all the moments of life really enjoyable? It has some such stressful moments that we have just to accept and experience their sufferings helplessly in silence.  Well, I am talking here like someone who knows what life is really like. No, I don’t. It is true that I have a relatively long relationship with it, but Alas, I still don’t know much; All the same, I’ll try to share the little I know with you.

Beyond The Usual Teaching Job

Abstract

                        The teacher gives examples, but the educator tries to be the example. The teacher who moves from teaching the syllabus to teaching the learners becomes educator. The teacher who dares to step beyond the usual job she does, and starts cultivating hope, at that very moment she is becoming a mentor and an educator.
