“A good teacher is like a candle—it consumes itself to light the way for others.”
–Mustafa Kemal Atatürk
in the company of good
we become good.
in the company of bad,
we grow worse.
but in the company of true master,
we become disciples for life.
they show us the path.
they lift us even before we
hit the ground.
they fill us with love, light,
and energy.
they can hear the beats of our soul
and feel the nerves of flowing blood.
nothing is hidden from them.
nothing. no woe. no joy.
no fall. no love. no dream.
no mistake.
they believe in us despite.
and teach us to attain mastery
over self and thoughts.
(may all of us be blessed with true masters in life!)
