                             Think Tank Day for me On 27th Sept, 2018, as soon as I reached the school yesterday. I was asked by Gujarati medium teacher to compose one or two letters. Casually I threw an open question at the teacher why she wanted it. She responded that the school was supposed to send the letter to the distinguished people who once visited to the school for some programme. So they felt to ask these people for their ideas, opinion for the school. So as the school could develop itself. In sake of that, the letter to be composed. I was happy to do it, but slowly I got realization that the letter should be good in content. It should be pleasing and appreciative one. As I began to jot down the ideas for that, I really faced the tough to please others while writing it. That consumed a lot of mental ability and timing too. I drafted three letters after deeply thinking. Even I came to my understanding that I didn’t write the letter to please others, but myself. That’s why

                                      The Diary                     Date: 24 Sept, 2018  Day: Monday Today I felt disinterested towards my work. I didn’t know the reason of it, but understood and thought of changing of it. At least I must have reason of being disinterested towards my work. It impacted upon other areas of my career and others too. That’s why I had to know the cause and try to change or correct it. Otherwise it could bring a disgrace to my life. On other hand my mind told me to go to bed and take a rest. Maybe it thought that I would get refreshed. But I knew that it always juggled a game of hide and seek. Even it distracted my routine by provision of such things.                 When I was writing this at the class, at a time one of the students reacted me, “sir, I am also feeling bored and tired, don’t want to study.” instead of responding him, I just looked at him and thinking that I was also myself of that type. So the theory of law of attraction went th

      I have written this poem in order to celebrate the 150 birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhiji. This poem is a dedication for his invaluable contribution for our motherland India.                                                                      Oh, My Motherland! Oh, my motherland! Oh, my motherland! We take an oath try to lift you on the land of the highest peak. Oh, my motherland! Oh, my motherland! We try to achieve, what you long for, abundance and prosperous in every field. Oh, my motherland! Oh, my motherland!   We try even to eradicate the disgrace of poverty, terrorism, global warming, unemployment, social imbalance and inhumanity. Oh, my motherland! Oh, my motherland! We make you clean, green, strong and enrich. Oh, my motherland! Oh, my motherland! Oh, my motherland! We unite for our security, peace and service for the Indian people. Oh, my motherland! Oh, my motherland!

            On last Saturday I reached at home around 7.clock and just relaxed for some time. As soon as I had a cup of tea, I got a call from my friend about going to city for some work. So I directly went at his place. From there we both went to the famous store ‘Perfect dresses’. Within 20 minutes we were there and parked the vehicle. We entered and he started talking with him on some important matter. So I sat quietly and kept listening to them.                                     Slowly the clock struck loudly and I looked at it. It was 9 clocks. By that time the shop owner offered some cloth bags to him. Automatically I saw at it and liked it very much. I hoped that I would have it. At least I would have two or three bags as I thought, but my friend held them. Even he liked these bags very much. From there we proceeded towards the chock bazaar at Al Khali Tea, Surat. But my mind didn’t drift away a topic of those bags and fully attached with them. Still I was expecting that

 This is just happy moment for me , but i have a long way to reach my destination. I thank the Lord for his incessant support to me and always guide me through the difficulties. I know that the life is  a learning process. finally I need to take my own responsibility of going ahead.

On 10 Sept 2018 Monday, we have kept open discussion on suicide prevention as the world will be celebrating ‘The International Suicide Prevention Day’. So we thought a lot about it and took decision that our students will discuss this topic with one another. Nowadays the incident of suicide takes place at every hour in India. There are many reasons regarding it. That may be personal, family, career, financial and another one. In this way the students will have good discussion. At least let them have their own views regarding the suicide and how to stop it. Further they can express their opinion and what they think about today’s pressure. I think that they will have free mind after sharing their feeling. It is open for 11, 12 com and science classes. In which they will share their nearby story with others. In between the teachers can also guide them on this significant topic.                   This discussion is for an hour and the students will be informed about the suicide ratio
