I was born...a princess...to my parents...to my family.. Grew up under tough discipline in the early days of my life...Convent made me even more sophisticated...rather complicated..:)i knew i had to attain perfection in everything i do....i once read " Habbits mould your character, change your habbits; change you character " this thought also coneccts me back to my article "Fractals of life ".I grew up being so idealistic;perfectionist all my life.. that i never saw the world the way a small street urchin would have...(..as if i had a single lens to look at everything around)but now when i visit Udyan i realize it...these little bundles of joy know lot more than i do....being a whiz kid... winning quizzes...made me proud ... but now i feel how false it was....that ....that sense of accomplishment, though it was always short lived.....leaving me yearning for more...but why??
26 years in this world........16 yrs of total discipline - made me understand the importance of time and money and ppl around; Saw things thru 'the lens'....5 yrs of self discipline - made me realize what friendship can do to you, learnt my first management lessons - the lens was still there......and then 5 yrs of exploring myself - i realized that imperfection, failure and all leeward things in life too have a beauty ....have something to learn - in process of removing the lens...
I am realizing it slowly but this time ...i m hell bent to remove that social lens...narrow lens that made me look things only one way....i knw...to get a holistic view requires time an patience...but i knw...theres time....i hope these kids...who give me more than i can give them....will definitely give me some valuable lessons...
