It is a pleasure to be a student
I am a student.
I have been a student as long as I remember.
And it is a pleasure to be a student.
I have been a student as long as I remember.
And it is a pleasure to be a student.
It is a pleasure to learn that I don't know.
It is a pleasure to learn that I already know.
It is a pleasure to learn that I was mistaken.
It is a joy to learn from Great Masters.
It is a joy to learn by sharing what I learnt.
It is a joy to learn how to be what I am.
I seek to learn about the world around me.
I seek to learn how to be a proper human being.
Clouds show me the nature of my world.
Rivers show me the nature of my myself.
Babies show me how to be more human.
I am a student.
I will be a student as long as I live.
And it is a pleasure to be a student.
