Ever since I left his class I've been taught by several others yet I've forgotten about most of them but not him.And why so?I asked myself,then it dawned on me when you knew nothing but just the national anthem song and ABCD...'A ne ne ba'.... he believed in you.When you feigned sickness during your maths class,he knew all about it yet he said,you're a bright kid,work harder.I was young then but His words had a phenomenal impact on my life.Only if he knew how powerful his words were.I recount when he once said his pride will be ...
