Happy World Teachers' Day!
"Teachers Deserve To Be Treated Like Heroes!"
In honor of the World Teachers' Day, I created this art to show my gratitude to all the dedicated teachers who have touched our lives! Indeed, they are like heroes.
As part of it, President Benigno S. Aquino III of the Rep. of the Philippines endorsed Proclamation No. 242 - A National Prayer For Teachers.
A PRAYER FOR TEACHERS
Giver of All Wisdom and Greatest of all Teachers,
Look upon our teachers with love
Grant them the resolve
To nurture our eager minds
And to never give up on us who fall behind
Bless their hearts
For they rejoice when we succeed
And encourage us when we fail
Endow them with gentle patience
For the path of learning is never easy
Kindle a spirit of passion in them
It is the flame that ignites the love of learning in us
Help them see the potential in each student
Their belief in us means much more than the grade we make
Instill in them a commitment to keep on learning
It shows us to not fear new knowledge and experiences
Inspire them to touch the future
They influence how big a dream we dream for ourselves
Bless our teachers who have come before
for their work endures to this day
Let the light of Your example shine upon all teachers:
To build up with their words
To love with their mind
To share with their heart
Amen.
