“Evolve
with every experience” – Lailah Gifty Akita
The
morning hours goes for the students who come to me for counseling, and the
afternoon for the prison. This year two
papers were given and I was busy planning my syllabus and accordingly
completing them within a specific period. I clicked this tree while I was
parking my bike in the premises for I was impressed with the way it was giving
shade to so many vehicles. I have been observing that tree for few years now
and this year I found it has grown huge spreading its branches wide and high
too, the tree looked beautiful and I could not stop myself but click.
We
are given opportunities too by life for change, we may not be in the prison –
but we can imprison ourselves by our old habits, living in the past, bad
attitudes…we all can learn from our past move on like the students who are
working hard to study, not just knowledge, but also changing and growing like
these wonderful trees that’s spreading its branches to reach out in giving
shade to so many.
