NATURE AND NURTURE...

Since two months almost many unprivileged kids came to my place for learning of Hindi and trying hard to complete their summer holiday works. It's not at all new concept for me. But, I observed their new development in their attitude at some students who were bright and high IQ to pick up whatever I instructed to them.. Their interest widened towards nature and they wished to open up spontaneously at the garden where they understand the need for the tree and their maintenance. I just observed from the distance how they flowed themselves with the passing of each time at the garden. They rolled themselves the best utilization of open garden where they played without hesitation. This is what I wanted to give more importance for their overall development of thinking and capacity to develop the body activity. I felt good that even if they were not from proletariat class still they enjoyed a few hours in the areas that they would not get this facility before that. Their smiling and happiness at the playground made me so satiate that my hard work had got the return value from my long struggle for doing something different. I  thought kids are after all the gift of God. Even if they are very common and poor but the right to enjoy with the nature is very specific.The distance between me and them became less now. Although they did not pay more attention to the meaning of progress of their study simply because they need only to get support and very relieved on the point that they are enjoying more with me.  They are not in a position to understand the definition of education what  Voltaire and Rousseau defined.The need of the hour is to give caring and attention to them. The total free environment can boost their confidence and moral support from us make them hassle free life later this will definitely help them to build a good human being.

Fragrances of scents and ittar...

With the arrival of summer, i usually search a good scent and do pray for my family..Every time I get confused as I am not satisfied with the materials which are generally available at the market.Even before going to any party I require specific perfumes that will utmost necessity along with my attire. Every time I am just carried all along with the varieties which are available at the local market. Later I tried and searched at the famous Shahjahanabad. While roaming in the narrow lane of old market of Dariba Kalan my eyes stopped at one particular shop that is GULAB SINGH JOHARIMAL.I went inside and sat for a moment to find the authenticity of the perfumes. I amazed to see a lot of young dudes visited that shop and their selections of perfumes.I confirmed this is the famous Attar Shop that sells fragrance oils.Since 1816 Gulab Singh Joharimal has been a trusted name in perfumes and attar also known as iftar. These all natural perfumes are highly concentrated and are usually offered for sale in small quantities there are so much to carry home that u will not want to go back empty-handed.Yes, the singh family still carry this business generation to generation but they maintain the standard of the perfumes also. One thing I remembered that the Mughals who were not only great architectures and fond of food but also a great sense of style and contributed a lot to the cultures of Indian society. Still, ittars and scented perfumes are in great demand in the middle east.I gratefully bought a number of varieties whenever i went there for shopping.

Deals with education

With the arrival of the summer season, so many preparations are going on at the schools to handover the long list of homework for the students.Initially, there is no reaction among little tiny tots to young ones to think about the works whatever their teachers have handed over to them.With the passing of each day, parents are also continuously in search of a perfect teacher who will assist to complete the long list of homework.Now, this is the common scenario at every location.But, nobody ever thinks how far their kids have learned and how intensely they know the basics of each subject.Everybody is hurried to complete their work by hook and crook way.Those who have affluent conditions they naturally are capable to provide finance for a private teacher. But the students of unprivileged family they never get any support from anybody but trying hard to complete their work. At times they leave everything without thinking much about the outcome. As usually our NGO, where I am working and now appointed as a Secretary, also declared summer vacation but I did very unusual decision for those students who were coming regularly at our NGO for coaching.I invited them to my resident for teaching.With diverse class and age group they all ready to start their study in front of me.I surprised, I lost my faith in the education system of our govt once I went through with those students. Though few of them were in class 5th and few others were in class 4th and class 3rd but nobody had any basic knowledge of alphabets. They were incapable to recognize any word in a proper way. I terrified how it is possible that a student of class 5th is not reading properly of their own book.Then I remembered the different progressive formulas that our govt has followed for the development of the education systemsThese are all in vain.Mere finance support and supply of all basic necessities to the students cannot give them any chance to develop their skills rather our govt should focus on the proper teaching method so that they can learn everything in a proper way.
