I am a science teacher in a government school. The metro station is my #mode of transportation to go back home from school.
The other day I was waiting for my metro at the #metro station. There were many college students also waiting for the metro to go to their #respective destinations. It was holiday season, therefore many students were going home. They were in happy mood. Every student had two to three extra books issued from the library. Some students were sensible and were carrying library books in plastic bags so that they could protect the library books from rain. Some students were a little careless and were #carrying books in a very filthy way. I was feeling miserable to see their short-sightedness.
Suddenly, I saw a very decent woman standing near me went to those students she said, "I am librarian in school. I am sorry to see how you are mishandling library books. Friends you don't understand how much hard work government does to bring a single book to #library. The purpose is to help students of our country to get knowledge through books so that they can become responsible students of our country. Please respect your books. They are giving so much to you. Imagine if you have to buy these books. I am sure you will think a thousand times before doing so. My request is not to misuse the facility. By doing so, you are guiding the coming generation of students to respect books. In Hindu mythology, we consider books as goddesses of knowledge. Please respect your culture and values. "
Many students #apologized to the madam librarian for their wrong doing. I also thanked the madam librarian for being so kind and courageous and raising her voice for wrong doing. I said," Madam, you are #true teacher in the real sense of the word."
Moral -Never disrespect a person or books that are giving you #valuable knowledge. Feel proud and fortunate for getting the facility to avail books from the library.
