The young people who want to become
educators have a dream about creating a new and a better person through their
work, thus making the world better, fixing everything that is bad in that world,
moulding people's destiny themselves. Their aim is to create better people for
the present and the future, which means to teach them the wisdom of a happy
lifetime. The teacher
remains ingrained in our memories for all our lives, not only by his name but
also by his character, words and thoughts. We remember his eyes, face, build and
voice. The light in our teacher's eyes led us into a strange world, into the
magical gardens of dreams, into meadows, games of light, movements of plants,
people and life, out of which we, still being kids, thought we would never come
back. They led us into a life that was a dream and taught us how to make it
real. A teacher spins
every truth with a colourful yarn of his words, because he believes that
everything takes the shape which our soul and heart give to it. The teacher is
our third parent. He loved us all and was committed to everyone and that is why
the photograph of him together with the friends from the class takes the
honorable place in the album, right beside the mom and dad's, reminding us of
past days. With his greatness in the eyes of a pupil, the teacher very often
becomes a teacher to mother and father, doesn't he? They respect the
parent-teacher because he corrects the mistakes they have made in the
upbringing, and makes us believe that an effort, skill and caution are the
magical formulas for success. His knowledge is as endless as the sea: he is an
actor, a painter, a singer and a musician. Every one of us likes having a brave
teacher who will be ready to stand at the beginning of our knowledge in the
uncertain path of life, to inflame the fire in our young hearts. I wonder who
would stand at the very beginning of our secret path into life and the world if
he wasn't there. Every teacher knows that life gives us
back as much as we give to it. He always radiates the internal power which has
influence upon us. He has taught us that the best way is the one we do not see
at once but know there is one, he taught us to read its sign in our hearts.
Every real life is beautiful and hard. Life is a challenge and a game to play.
Let us remember Branko Miljković and his words: "You should go to the end of the
world and find dew in the grass..."

Mladi ljudi koji žele da postanu vaspitači sanjaju kako će u svom radu stvarati novog i boljeg čoveka, kako će samim tim menjati svet na bolje, ispravljati sve ono što je loše u tom svetu, biti krojači ljudskih sudbina. Cilj im je da stalno grade bolje ljude za sadašnjost i budućnost, a to znači da ih uče mudrosti srećnog življenja. Učitelj se svima nama, za čitav život ureže u sećanje, ne samo po imenu, već i po ćudi, po svojim rečima i mislima. Pamtimo njegove oči, lice, stas, glas. Učiteljeve oči su nas svojom svetlošću uvodile u nekakav čudan svet, u začarane bašte snova, u livade, igre svetlosti, pokrete biljaka, ljudi i života, iz kojih smo kao deca mislili da se nikada nećemo vratiti. Vodile su nas u život koji je san i učile nas kako da ga ostvarujemo. Svaku istinu učitelj opreda šarenom pređom svojih reči, jer veruje da sve ima onakav oblik kakav mu daje naša duša i srce. Učitelj je naš treći roditelj. Voleo nas je sve i služio svima i zato je njegova fotografija s drugovima iz razreda na počasnom mestu u albumu odmah uz tatinu i maminu i podseća nas na minule dane. Svojom veličinom u očima đaka učitelj vrlo često postane učitelj i mami i tati zar ne? Oni poštuju roditelja učitelja jer ono što su u vaspitanju pogrešili on ispravi i uveri nas da su trud, veština i opreznost čarobne formule uspeha. Znanje mu je beskrajno kao more, on je glumac, slikar, pevač i svirač. Svako od nas voli hrabrog učitelja koji će biti spreman da stoji na početku svih naših saznanja na neizvesnoj stazi života, da raspaljuje plamičke u našim mladim srcima. Da njega nema, pitam se, ko li bi stajao na samom početku našeg tajnovitog puta u život i svet? Svaki učitelj zna da život vraća onoliko koliko mu damo. On uvek zrači nekom unutrašnjom snagom koja deluje na nas. Naučio nas je da je najbolji put onaj koji ne vidimo odmah ali znamo da postoji, naučio nas je da u srcu čitamo njegov trag. Svaki pravi život je lep i težak. Život je izazov i igra koju treba igrati...Setimo se Branka Miljkovića i njegovih reči: "Treba ići na kraj sveta i naći rosu u travi..."
Treba ići na kraj sveta i naći rosu u travi, autor Suzana Stojanović, 1998.
