help with a friendly letter
This is an e-mail that i plan to send to my philosophy teacher. She is the nicest and most brilliant woman that I have ever met. She is a grandmother, but I can honestly say that I love her in a non-sexual way. (she's not THAT old)..when i graduate from this university, which i dare not name, i will technically be in the top 2% of the educated people in the world, and I owe it all to her. What I am asking of you guys, is to edit certain sentences as you see fit. I want this letter to be AMAZING. just heartbreaking. If any of you have ever had an amazing influence in your life, then you know how this feels. I love her, and that's in a completely normal way. Help totse.
-by the way, if none of you recognize me, I'm quite a credible member in BLTC.
here it starts:
by the way. this is my personal thank you note. i thank you for every ounce of knowledge that you've given me. i couldn't think of any resource that's given me this much. And I'm not even comparing you to anything else. to judge an teacher by the amount of knowledge that they've given me would be ignorant.. i thank you for wisdom. i thank you for helping me adapt to college life. i thank you for philosophy. and most of all, i thank you for being you. i've never adapted to such a teaching method so easily. i've always thought of who I'd give gifts to if i had hit the lotto. or what department of this university that i'd give money to, and to be honest, that was a stupid thought, because you've given me more than what money is worth. you've given me a democracy of mind. I now take other philosophy classes, and although your teaching is not taking place in them, i feel that you have taught me more ethics and logic than you had intended. I've learned more from you than what you said out loud. I've learned your teachings, and I've learned you. And you, <insert her name here>, have taught me MYSELF, and THAT, is THE GREATEST GIFT ANYONE CAN GIVE.
"IT IS A PLEASURE TO THINK AMONGST LIKE MINDS"
All the best to you,
<insert my name here>
