She is an instrument of a noble task. Thanks to Myngle for doing a noble task too. It's also an instrument for Thea's dream. Thea is a REAL TEACHER. As I was looking at the snapshots and your descriptions of the school (how it was decorated with nature's best), I was reminded of my perfect and ideal teacher of long ago. This teacher came from a well-to-do family but opted to teach an impoverished barrio with a salary of PhP 500/month (approx. 8 euros). Every morning she would stand in front of an old school with big smiles waiting for her pupils of varied ages and who come from far flung areas. Her students would arrive one by one and the class would start at about 9:00. Her pupils....donned tattered clothes, no slippers nor shoes, uncombed hair...full of innocence but hopeful and very eager and willing to shell out themselves to embrace a new tomorrow through this noble teacher. At the end of the month, the pupils and some parents would bring her some eggs, chickens, root cops or anything they could give as payment for her wonderful lessons. These situations maybe are unimaginable by those in the affluent Western side. BUT THANKS....THAT AMIDST A PILE OF GOLDEN COINS ARE FEW SHINING SILVERS. MORE POWER TO YOU MYNGLE AND KUDOS TO YOU THEA. GOD BE WITH YOU. THE WORLD NEEDS YOU. Klara I wish Thea good health so that she can do what’s in her heart effectively.
