Looking down from my classroom window, saw Rajhans students walking out of their school in a single line towards their bus. Their discipline and simplicity was admirable. Sometimes we can learn a lot from these kids.
Looking at my life, thought that simplicity was pretty much there, but the discipline lacked. Life had been a lot unorganised, lot unplanned, my room's a mess, nothing's at the right place. I waste time hunting for my notebook, my pen-drive,my pen etc. I admired those kids.
I little further from the school is a large piece of unused land. Full of greenery due to rains. With grass and short bushes. Hard to find such a big open ground in Mumbai. A little further was PVR cinema where Badri, Dobhal, Kushal and Noopur were watching Rock On.I wished i was with them(though i ended up watching it next day). Then saw the heavy traffic at the JVPD junction .....dis place is never traffic free.
Back to the Bhavans campus again, i saw a small boy of 5-6 years with a coach in the tennis court. I was eager to watch how the coach would start. He was first explaining him the techniques of holding a Tennis racket correctly and appropriate method of movement.Next they started on to service. The coach made 3-4 services of different kinds and the boy was observing him.
It was his turn now. First serve, the boy could'nt connect the racket with the ball. Again the same thing next time. But for the third time, he connected it, only as far as to reach the net. This continued for long.The racket used to either miss the ball or the ball would touch the net.The coach corrected his arm action again and now after a few more trials, the ball reached the other side of the net. The kid must have felt happier. Now the ball was travelling other side of the net quite well, coach told him about cross serve and that the ball should fall in the opposite quadrant. The boy tried that too, sometimes going right,sometimes erred, but nevertheless he was learning.
The session ended soon..And So did the "CC" lecture.....Infact lectures have been so interesting these days. It's just a matter of how you look at it.
