Life what a teacher you have been!!



Life what a teacher you have been
Giving right lessons at right time
So that crap doesn’t consume my sheen.
You killed some of my petty dreams
To let the giant ones take birth
Debris of shattered dreams disappointed
But you made me forge the mightiest
If not those hard moments
When thee tested me
I would have been an ordinary being,
You were harsh so that
Weak in me should die forever
Fearful tears would not again let me shiver.
I broke from the fever.
Loss became victory.
Why? How? When? It still remains a mystery
How that cry child became fearless woman.
How silence became the furious roar.
I have become what I never imagined before.
Since then, inside there has been revolutionary beam
Yes life what a teacher, you have been.

The whole ordeal really made me reflect my role as a doctor, and the patients I should really be serving,” recalled Dr Rajesh Bhadoria.   Dr Rajesh is the officer in charge at the District Drug Warehouse (DDW) in Badi, Udaipur. He oversees the flag bearer DDW branch of Rajasthan’s free medicine scheme in the region. For the last five years, he and his team have been making sure that benefits of the free medicine scheme reach the people of Udaipur fully. The DDW is located about fifteen kilometers away from the main city of Udaipur, laced with vast and fresh water lakes of Fateh Sagar and Pichola along the way. ...

Nightingale got no prize at the poultry show

Einstien,Twain,Edison were born out of class, before the text proceeds , I would like to say here 'class' doesn’t mean the structure with four walls, one door, two windows, one teacher, books and the pack of chained students. Here class is the niche of brilliance, freedom, discovery, imagination and invention. I wish to have education system that forges humans with brain and not machines with grades. As a student .I always wondered, how one can go about saying two plus two equals to four? Without anyone questioning why? Just because our course book said so. Why in history "dates and events” were asked? When no one taught us the resemblance to the days which we live in. Why for learning anything new, we need old books instead of new ideas? Why make notes in class, when the brain is blank and ink in copy left no hammer on thinking? Why teachers ask us to learn by heart, while it is the mind that is required to do so.? Even Winston Churchill had a dig at his tea...
