~ The Blackboard ~

The official learning in human life begins with the entry into school even though , the child is exposed to various factors of known learning at home and unknown learning at various incidents. The blackboard is the major tool used for teaching. Written, erased and retained to explain the various aspects of learning is what we come across with the blackboard. But, before beginning to use the board for any other purpose, you would have noticed that the date and the day are the first most written or corrected. The teacher ensures the day and date are written correctly and then proceeds with the new lesson or continues with the previous class. When we relate this with our life, it tends to teach the basic of learning, to remain in the present, here and now.

~ Complete ~

Even though , most often complete and perfect are used as one and the same, a closer look clearly brings out the subtle difference. A complete personality need not be a perfect one. But a perfect one is indeed a part of the complete personality. Complete consists of both the perfect and the imperfect, both the good and the bad, up and down.

Of course , this beautiful word , death has always fascinated me and keep wondering about that most celebrated moment.The game is never complete without the beginning and end with utmost fun, as much as while playing it sportingly. When we decide to move to a new place for a livelihood from our home town, imagine someone, a friend, relative or even a stranger comes forward to offer a place exclusively for us and tells us," It is all yours as long as you wish to be here".

Over the years , we also start to treat that as our own home and keep continuing to live with all the fun, joy, sorrow, sickness,success etc. When the time arrives for us to leave to back home, what happens?? The clock starts ticking..
