A couple of months ago, I visited my home town to spend time
with my parents. I got the rare chance of meeting old school friends after
almost 20 years! The girls’ were shining in varied fields and it filled my
heart with pride and admiration to see everyone so well placed and successful.
There were those who were the brightest in class and had always topped every
exam and then there were those who did fairly well or not so well. But what was
amazing is that each one had found their calling. From engineers, lawyers, and
teachers, to working in the hospitality industry, running successful businesses
and acting in television serials, each one had become successful in their own
right. After 20 years it seemed like life had balanced itself leading each one
us to follow our dreams away from the burden of the educational degrees that
kept us tied up.
