Everyone can try his best to achieve something. We don’t need to be the best, but to constantly challenge the limits of what we are capable of. I gained this belief from my third grade teacher, the most special，honored，trustworthy，and considerate person in my life.
Mr. Myrus was always perfectly dressed and spoke with the belief that talking to an eight-year-old child didn’t mean he had to sacrifice appropriate statements or grammar. And he was demanding，but he wasn’t unreasonable or cruel. He simply felt that no matter what your best was, you should achieve it.
Luckily enough, I met him again as my eighth grade math teacher. I was not, nor ever will be, gifted in math. I remember my struggles in class. “I don’t know the answer,” I would say. “I can’t do it!” “Perhaps you don’t know the answer,” he would say quietly. “Do you think we might figure it out together How do you know what you can do if you don’t have a try ”
Mr. Myrus lived around the comer, and I would often stop by to talk while he worked in his garden. I knew there was someone who let me know that if I had really tried, that was enough. “Don’t be so hard on yourself,” he，d say. “Stop blaming yourself. Did you try your best Well, then you are not a failure,” he often told me these words.
Mr. Myrus died in 1978. I had never thought about his death. He was too young. I felt sorry. But when I think about him now, I don’t feel so sorry. He taught me to be kind, not only to others, but to myself. He taught me my own value. He taught me something about honor, about truth, and about doing my best and he also taught me that all feelings and beliefs have dignity and deserve respect. And of all the things I know, I believe that we can’t all be “the best”，but we can, each of us, be our best. And I know that’s true because Mr. Myrus told me that.
