I was once blacklisted as a teacher. It was not possible for me to get a job in primary or secondary, day or evening schools. The experience made me reflect if I was a good teacher. I firmly believed I was! So I became a voluntary teacher and still worked hard to get different qualification certificates in English and Maths teaching.
I had no time to complain. I reminded myself to just live well with smiles and thanksgiving every day. There was always a way out. All experiences gave me a colourful life.
Life is so wonderful if there is no comparisons or complaints. Thank my friends for their kindness which warms my heart. Thank those who hurt me as the experience made me strong.
Thanks for every beam of sunlight and every drop of rain.
