                                     Pursuing  Tertiary education at the age when the kids have grown, has given me enriching exposure and experience which has made me think why some human beings have been so cruel and rude. But at the same time I met many soul touching hearts, who have  been angels and counselors. These good Samaritans,are too good to me until I was shedding  tears when I thought of their kindness when I was alone in my room.        Many moments I wondered why those, who were in the same group of mine behaved very strangely and treated me  badly and humiliated me many times.  That was a good opportunity God has given me to study and learn about human behavior.The individuals who have treated me  kindly and accepted me as one of the...

   My experience of being an educator and taught in rural and town schools had given me various exposures and experiences which are not very common to everyone. Even though I tried my very best to make my learners perform excellently in studies, but from the parents side , the dissatisfaction was still there, I mean few selective parents pointout minor errors and argued about those mistakes. But later after I left those schools and when I was teaching in different schools , they told me, that I should have remained in those schools where their younger children still studying. I realized how selfish, people are, expect every one to be perfect and they want only the best of everyone. I met various charcters of adults and children. But kids are everywhere same, but the most strange characters which are very difficult to predict are the adults. They just cant stand of changes and ready to accept new ideas. I was shocked to meet some individuals, throughout their life worked...

  My frequent visit to the girls toilet in my School had given me some thought. I realized why the girls choose to spend time in the less conducive and worn out toilet for long hours. What I saw there, had really made me think that this toilet or that particular corner  had been their soul resting room. I mean these teenagers poured out their feelings on the walls of the toilet, their hatred,misfortune, love and miseries  on the walls. Even though my school has the maximum number of teachers and two Councilors. They seemed not bothered or attended by anyone. Only Those walls wait for them patiently and listen to their stories and heart touched incidents and characters.
