may be...


Days coming, days passing….life’s just moving on…many a times I end up feeling like this…somewhere down in my heart I have come to realize that this is not I want to do; getting up, coming to the office, tapping the keyboard, chatting, checking mails, having meals and going back home at odd hours…but still I am doing it…’coz there are some things which you have to do. Maybe I am in the process of finding a destination, the journey of which will make me happy…

But in spite of all this I have found a place which brings the “feel good factor” in my life! A place where I go whenever this monotonous and boring life gets onto me! Its’ this school for visually impaired, a bit far from my home…I actually don’t mind travelling to that place…the moment I enter the school; I leave behind everything that bothers me. The very sight of kids is enough to lift up my spirits!! The warmth and affection in the touch of kids makes me feel special…their enthusiasm to learn new things, the confidence they exhibit in all their actions, the amount of talent they possess makes me feel small at times…

I go there and teach them conversational English; but then that’s only one side of the story…whenever I come back from that place I carry an experience worth cherishing…an experience that makes me feel enriched as a human being…maybe I have found a chore that gives me a feeling of contentment of doing something worthwhile….maybe I have found a way to lifts my spirits to face life!!
