I was just on the phone with one of my high school teachers. I've recently graduated, and she was telling me about how the administrator/teacher thought highly of me and how he said I was one of his most excellent students. He is a wonderful person, who is very kind and caring. He may seem strict and harsh at times, but everything he does, he does it out of love and I hold great respect for him. After hearing her tell me this, I was simply amazed that one of the people I respect the most would think so highly of me and consider me one of his most excellent students. It just made me feel so grateful to have been able to get to know him. To me, my high school is very special and I will never forget any of the teachers there and how they have impacted my life. Each and every single person there has been able to touch my heart greatly and I am so glad that I was able to go there for high school and learn so many lessons about life. Every single person that teaches there does so with love, and no one does it for money or glory, but just for the sake of teaching and because they love to. Even if you graduate, they still check up on you to see how you're doing, and there's more than just a teacher/student relationship. It's there, but you see them more as friends than as a teacher.
