Imagination rules the world !!!It's proved again by a cute little girl 👸👌👏🌈

Awesomee ......A story in one of the schools in Chennai where admission is considered impossible!!! To get UKG admission The child could not understand why they brought her there.. When we all were standing, the school principal started to converse with the child....yes...in English only! This is one of the most memorable interview I have ever witnessed in my life.. Here goes..

We, as a society, really have no idea how *suffocated* people are in their emotions. Most people have *nobody* to express themselves entirely to. Everyone is holding back their *vulnerabilities* to maintain the *social image* of a confident and happy person. Heart-to-heart conversations have become *rare, artificial and shallow*. And most hearts are filled with *empty defences*. Most people can't even talk to their *life-partners openly* for the fear of being judged or rejected. Emotions await just a release. Social images make sure weakness is not glorified. Children have *bottled up* stress. Young people suffer anxiety and depression. It is just lack of social support. It is *lack of non-judgmental* friendships. It is result of *fast and busy lives* where nobody has time to just sit and watch someone cry. It is result of *instant and impatient lifestyle* practices, that *emotions have started feeling like waste of time*. We have *WhatsApp and Facetime and social media...

GOLDEN THOUGHTS OF THIRUKKURAL - Parenting !!!!

*Tirukkural  by Tiruvalluvar (a Tamil  poet/writer) was written more than 5,000 yrs ago. It’s one of the ancient science on Human Behaviour, which has not changed in spite of modern education  & technology!* *SOME GOLDEN THOUGHTS OF THIRUKKURAL:* 1. *If your child lies to you often, it is because you over-react too harshly to their inappropriate behaviour.* 2. *If your child is not taught to confide in you about their mistakes, you’ve lost them.* 3. *If your child had poor self-esteem, it is because you advice them more than you encourage them.* 4. *If your child does not stand up for themselves, it is because from a young age you have disciplined them regularly in public.* 5. *If your child takes things that do not belong to them, it is because when you buy them things, you don’t let them chose what they want.* 6. *If your child is cowardly, it is because you help them too quickly.* 7. *If your child does not respect other people’s feelings, it is bec...
