never thought I'd actually like to complete the whole story but I did. And I somehow could relate to it even though I am a sahariya. nice story. But you slacked off at the end about how you became a GM and stuff. Still I get the vibe. indsiguise wrote : ell agreed its long, but well, if we look around sajha, more than half of the posting are junk. I believe this article is way up there in the list of good articles, especially considering the absurdity of most of the posting. Some of the postinf, I am sorry to say, should simply be thrown out, but then again, to some it might mean something more. To each to their own, I presume. Back to the point.A very inspiring piece indeed. I say so coz I have seen some people who have actually been thru all that and succeeded. My teacher Mr. Balmukunda Sir being one of them. I do not know the similarity between the character in the story and my Sir; nevertheless I would assume it must have been quite similar. I was actually in boarding most (almost all) of my school life. When I used to come home on holidays he (and Ashok Sir) used to come home and teach me and my brother (sometimes). Looking back to those years I can now imagine how hard he used to work. My father always used to admire and give example of him and the likes of him. Did this Balmukunda Sir teach in Little Angel's?? I used to go to tuition with him so I asked?
