It was 2000 when I joined ML Sultan Technikon and you were there to do induction for the newbees. I learnt a lot from you besides love of your work. I learnt how dedicated are you to the humankind, the love of your students was amazing.
You taught me to know my students to call them by names so that they would realise their worthy in the relationship. Those are the good practices I am still holding.
You have said repeatedly that I have to do things for myself, just for myself. There are more times where I push my self-interest far away and look at other people’s interest. I must tell you that I hate myself for that, because people are up in the last step of the ladder and I am down nurturing their interest.
You have been a spring of water that never gets dry. Each time we meet, you will always encourages me to look at my life and do something about it. Coming to your Friday meetings have given me direction although I have been away for long but I know where to find something that will boost my energy.
Looking at the bigger picture, it was God’s plan to be placed in this environment to nourish so many souls. It has been God’s plan to bring light to those who were afraid to move out of darkness.
Thank you, you have been a good influence on me even on my son who is studying Jewellery Design, he asked me where can he study to become an anthropologist.
May God’s arms embrace you with his love.
