What a teacher writes on the whiteboard of life can never be erased

Ladies and Gentlemen

Being a teacher of senior high school in remote areas of Borneo is special experience for this young woman.

Many things came to her mind, she was scared, she was worried about her destination. How is the habit, culture, society ?, an then she thought about long-eared man, mysticism, black magic. The shadow often haunt her.

But, finally she made decision, she went to the goal area, took about 10 hours by boat down the river forests of Borneo. on both sides of the river there are hungry crocodiles with their mouths open waiting for the monkeys that hang from fall down. The next day, She arrived at 01.00 pm by public transportation

Since that day, her days filled with sorrow and weeping, she blamed her brother, she blamed her sister, she blame her parents, and she blamed her God.

"Why would I be here? "I wanted to go home, I could not stand, why should me ?, why not someone else ?, and another complains until a few months.

One day, there was student made a problem. Her student beat and threated her friend. And her friend, finally moved to town.

What about her students ?,

Don’t ask.. “Have her students won the competition ?”, Never.. They came to school was already greatful. There was student can’t read, there were students can’t count, they used their finger for count. Can you imagine ?, how can, she educated them ?

Seeing happiness, smile, joke, and the small success of her students.. made her selfishness and the frozen heart began melt. She realized that she was meaning for others and can shared her knowledge in that place.

She learn to enjoy her lonliness, learn to be independent, learn to be greatful, learn about life, learn many things, and now she learn English with you all.

So, Ladies and Gentlemen

“Be greatful of what you had because Life is a gift. And God would surely show his greatness and powerness to his servant who patient and never despair”
