How do we know if our flame is getting weaker as we make our way towards our goal? What are the symptoms? How can we brighten the flames of the children whom we will be in charge of in the future?
I know that I still have the passion in me. Yet, I have been feeling tired. Somehow, I need to fuel that flame. I want to regain the energy levels that I used to have and push myself to the limit. It is only when we are pushed to the limit will we be able to achieve a higher level of understanding and enlightenment.
But I should not impose that idea on others. This is bearing in mind that we all have different objectives in life. Yet, we are all teachers. We play the critical role of guiding our students so that they can appreciate life and the world around them in a more positive way and make positive contributions. Yet, this is always in conflict with the fact that we are humans after all. We do have our flaws and weaknesses. And we all have different tolerance levels for imperfection.
Oh no!!! I should not fall into that trap. I should always have high expectations. Only with that can we move to a higher plane of thinking and understanding and appreciating the intricacies of life. Something which I regret not having attained the slightest bit at all the past twenty over years.
God help me!
Amen!
