No body knows him but I yesterday I went to the pharmacy and asked the pharmacist where do I get a ticket for the line. Some old guy behind me said its over there, I said thanks and went to get it.

My high school teacher never liked me and most of the time she ignored me and the times she didn’t, looked at me like I’m a loser.
I didn’t do very well on the big exams (similar to sat) and after few tears I served in the army, I did some courses to raise my grades.
These exams happen to be in my high school with all the 12th graders, and so I was sitting there and waiting for the exam to start and then I saw her peaking from the door after years I didn’t see her.
She got in and called my name with a huge smile on her face saying “I knew I would see you here some day”.
I’ll never forgot this mean smile and I have to say, this smile really helped me on hard times at the university. It kept me motivated.
This was 13 years ago and today I have a bs.c. In computer science and working at as technical team lead in a big software company, managing engineers.
I sometimes remembering this and smile to myself. I don’t think she knows what I’m doing today, but the fact that I know I made it, gives me comfort
