My sister is the first friend of mine from whom I enjoyed the cuteness and innocence of a baby, and became aware of share, care and beauty of nature.
With my nursery friends I shared goli, stickers, colour papers which were so special to us.
The class intervals in primary classes, were so sweet to remember with the plays with friends and lot of Mitti and Katti (friend and unfriend).
When I came to High school class foundation of my character was laid. Sherly made me look outside my small world to realize the reality of this world. Her criticism with love transformed my character to a better level, I started realizing the power of God, and the understanding attitude developed for the feelings of fellow beings. Sherly stood before me as a great example of hardwork . But along with it some of my little friends showed the ill effects of jealousy, bad behavior, mistrust, arrogance which led them to a horrible condition.
Importance of moral side of the character was taught by my college friends. Thorough lessons of facing difficulties with patience and strength were taught by them. When I started sharing my feelings with them I learned the lessons of unity, trust, advice, psychology, colours of life etc……..Our outings, cafeteria, tours, experimental labs, again so nice to remember.
When I got employed and then married the syllabus of the lessons taught by the then friends was large. Very difficult to digest. Even now I wonder how quickly I am going through the life syllabus with a lot of mistakes in homework and are getting corrected by experience.
I realize that the lessons of patience, mental and physical work, psychological approach, money management, fighting with strain, loneliness , love,care and everything from A to Z which I studied as a student was only at a preliminary level.
Now along with my friends I am busy in doing the life homework of the above topics with present syllabus where we are struggling a lot with multicalcuations and strain around 360 degree.
But my friends rocks again with the help of modern technology which connects us and help each other to do one’s life homework with less mistakes.
