I am guided on my research journey by my former students
What's funny is that some of my students now coax and encourage me to finish my research. The students whom I always guide and help are also the ones who guide and help me with my study. I thank God for the opportunity to be a researcher and a guide for researchers.

This post expresses my frustration; as right now, I feel pretty tired. And my research students form a significant area of my concerns.
