On this Teacher’s Day I Remember the teacher who changed everything

I distinctly remember that Sunday afternoon. It was the month of May, and the mercury threatened to touch a sweltering 37 degrees. The sudden phone call startled me into a fit of abrupt wakefulness.

On this Teacher’s Day I Remember the teacher who changed everythingHer Final Goodbye

“Hello, Sanath?”
“Yes”
“Rajeev here.”
“Oh, hi, Rajeev! What’s up? Long time no see.”
“Yeah, Sanath, there is some news, Ma passed away last night. Heart Attack. The doctors couldn’t do anything.”

Shocked, perturbed, I sat motionless on my bed.
“Mrs. Mrinalini, dead!!”

Upon hearing the news, my brain was sent into a tizzy, and my mind was lost in a whirlpool of memories and emotions.

It took some time for the news to settle in. Of course, she was old. But it all happened so suddenly.

When we were in the ninth grade, Mrinalini Chatterjee or Mrs. M was first introduced to us as she would prefer us to call her. Stout and round, wearing horn-rimmed glasses, she had an air of casual sway. Hands always at work, she was often found engrossed in some task or another. Back in the day, I was a bit of a rebel—a time when I was discovering my impulsive teen years. Studies bored me, so I never studied. Never.

I invited trouble everywhere I went, smuggled fags into my room, and did every stupid thing a naïve teenager does. My family had given up on me. The situation got so bad that they decided to pack my bags and send me away to some distant boarding school. It was during this troublesome period that Mrs. M came to my rescue. Stepping in, she decided to take me under her tutelage.

And I kid you not, from that moment forth, it was a roller coaster ride. It took her a lot of effort to set me straight, but she eventually got me back on track. Her outlandish methods ensured that she always found ways to get things done. Her sharp features, coupled with an enigmatic personality, had us in awe of her. A guide in the truest sense of the word, she always made sure that we got the best of everything even if times were trying.

Her Final Goodbye

A shrill cry of a dog jolted me back to reality. Gingerly opening my cupboard, I took out the skillfully crafted goblet. It was a parting gift from our dear ma’am. Those last few days of our school life were now a haze, but I had her final goodbye etched in my memory-

“Children are like these goblets, waiting to immerse in the water of joy, knowledge, and love. And one day, when you grow up, you will have the wonderful occasion to fill these little things and when you do so, do it with utmost nobility, earnestness, and love.

-To the teacher who taught me the values of love, integrity, honesty, and many other things.

-To the woman who was the best teacher I could ever ask for.
