No matter how many years have passed since one leaves their school, one thing that is sure to remain forever etched in our hearts are the life lessons that have been imparted to us by our teachers. And what warms my heart the most is that some people always remember to love and give back to their professors. For instance, how students opened a tiffin center named ‘Gurudakshina’ for a Telangana teacher who lost his job, or people online sharing memories of their English teachers in a loving thread.
This Teachers’ Day, many Bollywood and other celebrities took to Twitter and Instagram to thank and pay their respects to the various teachers in their lives and talked about the meaning and importance of the occasion. Check them out below:-

One who passed away on #TeachersDay also taught us a great deal — about love, compassion and kindness to strangers, the hungry & the dying. Our hearts need instruction as much as our minds. #RememberingMotherTeresa pic.twitter.com/HYLvIpWIpN

My first teacher. Taught life lessons with her grit and sacrifice.
For 8 years, she woke up at 3.45 AM everyday, did chores, travelled 4 hours to teach tribal kids in primary school. Never went a minute late.

They say it takes a village to raise a child. Apt for the #elephant family. Here mother, aunts, grandmother & all other ladies of the family raise calves. Everybody in the family is a responsible teacher.
