School is beginning. She like no one and nothing else, turns man into a personality. It is there we begin to open up, to take the first decent application of yourself to the world. The school is the first step to independent living. Because a lot happens for the first time: first lesson and the first victory, and first serious defeat, and first love. In school we come timid, shy and inept. With hands passed us parents are the first teacher. There were many experiences, but we were lucky with the first teacher – kind, wise. She became a second mother. The teacher taught us not only to read and write, but also to make friends, to understand what the Motherland begins "from the picture in your ABC-book".
