Rise to the Occasion
I received a message on my handphone this morning, and the message went, “Good Morning! I am now in a mist of a lecture given by my students in NTU. It is boring!”
The message was from a fellow teacher from a very good school. It made me think whether I should reply, “Oh yeah! They can be boring!” or “Be thankful that you are there and not in school.” However, I replied “Oh. Enjoy! Hahaha… Not many teachers have the privilege to listen to their students attached to some researchers. Take pride in your privilege! Hahaha…”
You see. I am in a typical neighbourhood school. Most of the time, my students are not able to express themselves eloquently and politely. The majority of them have problem coping with their own curriculum, not to mention anything extra. At the end of the day, I am really very thankful if they could do well for their exams. It is not that I am looking down on my students but I feel that we should strive to believe and support our students regardless of what they are and take pride that we are able to be there to witness it.
On closing note, I really hope that one day my students are able to rise up to the occasion wherever they are and be thankful for the teaching and support given to them.

Do you think it is the doctor's purpose to cure sickness or judge humans?
Is the doctor a man of medicine or a judgement dictator?
Does he become a doctor to help people or to refuse a person treatment based on prior activities?
How would you say this is justification when the first moral obligation is to cure the disease?
To be a physician is not about the judgement of a patient's character, doctors are not the judge and jury in the court of law.
It doesn't make sense, like oh this or that person does not get treatment because they are the relative of some notorious criminal.

A person does not need to earn the right to treatment, that is repugnant to me. Don't you think?
