First Step Lessons.

THE FIRST STEP LESSONS
I recenly visited my old school. This was a hostel where i spent my initial adolescent years and studied from 4th to 6th standard.The revealation was good as i visited after 15 long years. When i was small the school looked big and as i grew up the same school looked much smaller. The difference was the way my perceptions and choices changed in life. As we grow up so does the knowledge and experience, that life gives us. Our horizons broaden day by day and the world looks a much smaller space

For example when we are small, tiny toddlers, the distance greater than any arms length is too far, and then walking or crawling is a big thing. The paces we cover towards our own mother is too far while learning the first steps of life. But as we grow we learn to walk, run and sprinting many times through the 200 yard football field becomes easy. And as we grow older the use of sms, mobile, chatting or even blogging which i am doing now, knits and shrinks the world to a much smaller size. So small that the whole world seems to be in hand. And so we come to know the importance of first steps.

So the school that once used to be big, becomes a small sacred place. What i want to express is that no matter how big the world grows it is always going to be a sacred place for learning. Now be it big or small, its entirely on how do you percieve it, and it really does’nt matter what the size is. What matters is that its always an open book, encyclopedia, Brittanica, school, College, university, a research centre.

You know why?……Because it teaches you how to live life. And LIFE IS A LESSON, YOU LEARN IT WHEN YOU ARE THROUGH.
