Dare to be different??

It is not wisdom , to be only wise

And on the inward vision close the eyes

But it is wisdom to believe the heart

Columbus found a world and had no chart.

In today’s world , parents teach their children to goto school ,get educated and get good grades for a bright future. But is it justified in the present world?

Most of the CEO’s of huge conglomerates are school or college drop outs, people with very nominal degrees but great vision and potential to perform. Does this mean that college education is not very helpful? Well it could be. All that we learn in our school and college is theory, how to solve numericals , how things work etc. A tremendous pressure is laid upon a student to perform academically. Companies employ students with 60% and above score, universities for higher education also demand the same. How justified is this? Why is a person forced to study things in which he has absolutely no interest? I agree education is important but does education constitute of studying subjects only? Nah….

Most of us prepare real hard for the competitive exams to get into a good B school.Is it essential to go to a business school to learn about business management? Again the answer is NO. A person who has absolutely no knowledge about the various management fundas might be a far better businessman than somebody who knows all of them by heart. A person who knows is the one who is scared to differ from it and is not adventurous enough to try something new.Whereas a person who doesn’t know about all these is someone who would always be innovative and imaginative.If such is the case then why do most of us slog? Why are we a part of the rat race?

The answer is that we are afraid to be different.We don’t want to stand out in a crowd because we are scared of criticism and failure. But it’s a fact that people who have the guts to be different and are bold are the ones who truly succeed in life.

Life’s battles don’t always go to the stronger or the faster man, Sooner or later the man who wins is the man who thinks he can.

PESEVERENCE

When things go wrong,as they sometimes will,
When the road you are trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
You want to smile but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns.
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out.
Don't give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out,
Silver tint of the clouds of doubt.
And you never can tell,how close you are?
It may be near when it seems so far.
So stick to the fight when you are hardest hit.
Its when things seem worse, that you must not quit!!!

Trip 2 a ghetto

Today being a Sunday, i as usual was looking forward to my visit to Maninagar.Visiting the people there and teaching the children has become a weekly routine.We were a little late in leaving the campus as most of us were tired after the farewell party yesterday.We took a different route this time round which turned out to be shorter. Anshum who was visiting the first time was a little enthusiastic,but after spending some time with his "students" there he was all worn out.this was primarily because he was not used to handling so many children at a time.
This time the number of students was a little less and i found quite a few new faces as well.The enthusiasm that they show towards every activity that we have there is remarkable, be it learning ABCD or singing or coloring ,everyone participates.It seems that they are a little bored of the usual study pattern and learning ABCD...the entire time they kept asking about when the coloring activity would start and yeah they did have a great time coloring and we had a tough time teaching them how to color and managing the crowd.I taught a nursery rhyme "twinkle twinkle", the girls were fascinated to learn only because we were singing it ,when it came to reciting it they had lost all interest.It was good to see that even if they were not able to pronounce the complicated words correctly ,they were successful to a great extent in copying the sounds.I was happy to see that a few girls were exceptionally fast in picking up the words and memorizing them and am hoping that they will learn it by next week ,because songs have always enchanted people more than poems.A few couldn't even pronounce 'twinkle' they were pronouncing it as 'pinkle',but then the confidence which they exuded was praiseworthy.There is this really bright girl named Rinky who has studied till class 3 and she is really quick at grasping things.we had never thought that we would come across somebody like her there so we had nothing to teach her,but then this week we will make sure that she has something new to learn.
Seeing the interest that the kids showed in coloring was a real booster,but then we noticed that they were neglecting studies because of it so we have decided to make it a weekly activity than a daily one.also that we dont have much funds to spend on colors or photocopies.they are so excited over coloring that a kid colored my capri when i was sitting next to him. :)
Then there are kids who still dont know how to spell their name ,which is a little disappointing but then their enthusiasm to attend the teaching sessions on a regular basis enhances our efforts to teach them.there is this kid whose name is sandeep when asked to write he confused s with 2 and wrote 2andeep.we had a great time laughing over it.
All in all it was a good trip.although there were just three of us there,but then we did manage to handle the children and teach them something.
