THEY CALL IT 'TEACHING'

They call it ‘teaching’. They say its a way of learning. They point out all your flaws and forget to mention your strengths or maybe they lost it alongside their conscience. 
They cut you in pieces with their words and when you resist, they claim that you don’t want to learn. ‘‘You have to learn to take corrections!’’ They say. I would learn if only you taught.
Don’t you know your words are weapons? Don’t you know they cut through? If you used your head as often as you used your mouth, maybe you would have figured it out. Maybe you would have realized that the death of the young lady that jumped off the building wasn’t in fact a suicide but murder. She was dead before she hit the ground and the murder weapon was ‘your words’.
Don’t be naive! You don’t have to kill him to teach him. Caution him! but encourage him! Tell him where he went wrong but tell him what he got right! Don’t push him to the breaking point, push him to be a better version of himself. Get him to learn more about himself. To see all that he is and all that he could be. 
He is human! Don’t forget that either. 
And while you still sit on the throne as the leader of ‘wise people’, while you still hold the title of the ‘father of wisdom’! Judge! Presiding over the foolish an inexperienced east,west,north and south of you. 
Get this, ‘whoever and whatever you are was not solely of your own making. The position you occupy as a ‘teacher’, mentor or boss was not completely by your might. 
There is a God! or in the words of our very wise former First Lady ‘There is God o!’
Remember this, Sit down and be Humble!
