It is what helps them get up each morning, sees them through the victories but more often gives them a reason to continue enduring through the storms of struggle, heartache and often times feelings of defeat. I know you feel bad about not telling him but I am willing to bet that he know how you felt. He saw how you went on to success or at least heart about it because I went to a small school in an even smaller town and my mentor knew. It has been 9 years now she has passed away from cancer but a week before she passed I sat by her bedside. She made me promise to never give up on succeeding on my dreams on using my abilities to sing and touch people. She never gave up believing on me even when I never told hoer much much she meant to me. I think your teacher knew that you cared because for one thing you continued to listen to him and to strive to use your abilities to be a stronger better person. I think that is why he reminded you that you were made for things much bigger that that small town. He was in his own way telling you not to give up. He knows how you feel and what would be an even better testimony is to continue to touch other people in your life that come across your path in the years to come. You will not only leave a mark of yourself but you will leave a mark of your teacher on that persons life. Love you my friend and I know your teacher sees you in heaven and is so proud of the woman you have become.Indie BookNerd Writehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06202225770670901900noreply@blogger.com
