Embroidery on Values of Life

I am a science teacher in a government school. I always tell my students not to #waste paper, clothes and food at any stage of life.

I remember my grandmother, her hardworking hands were always busy #saving something or other. She came from a generation that sewed holes in socks instead of throwing them away.

New blouses to be worn with a sari were created by my grandma from the leftovers of a sheet of #fabric, for the little one-stiched garments.

As I looked at her, I kept looking at the wedding ring, which she never took off even after my Grandpa passed away, in fact, she wore it as a #pendant.

All the time she was busy mending and mending, in fifty years of marriage, with her humble efforts she was busy helping our needy neighbors. Her generation was unique, they valued things and #people.

The best example of the best doing of my grandmother, I still remember is unique which touches my heart.

Sometimes my father would not like his mother visit to her parents. My father was of the view when the children’s mother is away, the children of the house get #neglected. But my grandma at that time will mend my father’s heart and as well my mother’s heart.

My grandma will say ” Let my daughter-in-law go to her mother for just one day, as her visit to her parents will give her a different kind of #energy, which on earth nobody can give her.”

Her kind gesture to my mother was so touching and I still remember it till today. This has become more meaningful to me when every day I hear stories of mother-in-laws who sometimes use their wisdom and power for wrongdoing and forget to embroider values of life and create difficulties for their daughter-in-law in day-to-day life.

As I looked at her, I kept looking at the wedding ring, which she never took off even after my Grandpa passed away, in fact, she wore it as a pendant.

All the time she was busy mending and mending, in fifty years of marriage, with her humble efforts she was busy helping our needy neighbours . Her generation was unique, they valued things and people.

Now I tell my students “Let us turn to our grandmothers and learn how their entire good doings teach us to mend relationships, mend our hearts #repair family wounds, fight for what is worthwhile, and embroider the value of life again.”

Facing Change With Courage.

I am teaching science in government school.

After mobile #phones came into existence, people felt that this change in mode of communication through mobile phone will give #drastict change in life of every person.

Teen ager students were also excited. Many students bought good mobile phones. It was hard for parents and teachers to make students realize that one can not spend whole day on phone.

Good amount of student’s personal time was spent on screen.Teen ager students started avoiding #physical activity in their daily routine. Doing physical #fitness exercise was not at priority of students.

Sometime when teacher is teaching in class to secondary kids, instead of following teacher, students start having #fun on mobile phone by sitting on last bench of class. All these new changes become challenge for teachers.Good school teachers faced this change #boldly.

School administration big decision that students are not allowed to bring mobile phone in class and in #examination hall helped in #teaching learning process.

In examination hall students were allowed to keep their mobile phone on teacher desk. Other problem teachers faced how to know which mobile phone belong to which student. #Track of same were to be kept. In some schools even teachers were not allowed to take phones inside class rooms.

I have mentioned only small number of small problems which school #administration faced when mobile phone came into existence. The list can be much longer.

My submissions is that small change in society in mode of communication can have big impact on student, teacher and administration of school.

On the other hand , in time of #corona mobile phones were so handy for teachers for imparting #education on line.

I always tell my students that by changing your face it is not much you can #achieve in life. On other hand facing change in life , like using mobile phone for good, you can achieve so much in many forms of knowledge and can make your good #personality.

Moral-Always face change in life with #confidence and #courage.

Good Administrator

I am a science teacher in a government school.

Another day, I had the good fortune to be part of a meeting of my old students who are good administrators. I am listing some parts of their conversation in the meeting which are important below. I shared with my students in co-curricular activity class during #school hours.

Sanjay said “My observation is good administrators never let any activity in a whole day turn to bitter #experience. “

Raju said” Good administrators never let the negative experience of his life turn him/ her cold. He/she faces it #boldly “

Rakesh said,” Good administrator always stay #soft in his/ her talking even when many things are not on his/her side.”

Uma said,” Sometimes many things happen in his/her life which is life-threatening, but with strong will #power he/she overcomes them.”

Manish said ” Good administrator is a bigger #human being. Pain in his/ her life never defines him/her.

I said,” A good administrator always makes his/ her institution #rise."

After the above-mentioned meeting. I got an opportunity to interact with my students. From the discussion, students concluded that good administrators should possess

1. Strong Organizational capacity of time.

2. Good communication skills

3. Ability to solve problems

4. Approach to maintain a positive attitude in life.

I was so happy that now my students also know which skills to work on in their personality if they wish to be good administrator.

Wife and Cactus Plant

Cactus is desert fleshy plant with long roots. Our knowledge of subject botany teaches us that Cactus plant is unique in sense that it can survive in harsh conditions. Cactus leaves are in form of thorns which help in decrease in water transpirtation hence saves lot of water.

As per Indian and Eastern culture Cactus plants are culturaly very rich and are symbol of warmth and unconditional love. Sometimes Cactus come to symbolize strength and protection and, in some case, lust and attractiveness! Question is why? Answer to above question lies in dynamics of day to day life.

Wise wife/daughter -in law is like cactus plant with flower. She stands up with husband and family in times of tears, defeat and every adversity as cactus flower/plant which remain ever green thorns in harsh circumstances. Where thorns represent true daughter -in law /wife adaptation in adversity As nature values its all types of Cactus varieties, similarly humanity should respect all mothers/ daughter- in- laws who stand with family in all adverse conditions and contribute to family by lot of adaptation in her needs and desires.

Dynamics of Consuming Less and Creating More

am aI science teacher in a government school.

After passing out 12th class from school many of my female students did #nursery training and startedv teaching preschool kids in private schools.

Some of my other female students learned #classical dance for two years. It so happened they got married and could not continue dance training. Since they are creative girls they are always teaching dance to 3 to 4 kids at home. For them, it is not a question of money. They are putting in these sincere efforts as they wish that their passion for creativity remains alive in them. I appreciate their cooperative in-laws also who are so #encouraging of their daughter-in-law.

One of my students is good at baking and makes #cakes on order with no sugar/ egg. These types of cakes are very much in demand as people are very conscious about the consumption of sugar.

Some of my female students help design experts in making ready-made #garments. Some are learning computer courses also.

Taking inspiration from me, some of my students are putting their creative skills into #writing. Some are involved in # the translation of articles from one language to another.

I feel so proud of these female students because when they create, definitely they #consume less, this is the law of nature. Less consumption of TV, Netflix, and YouTube time. It’s a great achievement in this world of science and technology.

Many people spend a lot of time watching TV and YouTube but never put that knowledge into action. That superficial knowledge they make use of in gossiping on the phone.

I tell my students please write more, paint more, create more discussions, and products and bring your #ideas out into the world as and when possible.

Even in my school, I encourage a lot of #debate topics that are relevant to society, to be taken up by students. Students' thoughts are creative and bring new ideas to the world. I am also in favor of making abstract and concrete educational collages for students. Some creative students put life in digital educational #collages through their selection of lovely shades of colors.

Many students say” Madam we think that we are learning from audio/ video content but as soon as we try to put that knowledge into action we feel some pieces are missing. This is because too much knowledge of contents # paralyze thinking.”

I always advise my students to set boundaries for consumption: Limit your time spent on consuming content. Maybe it’s just 30 minutes a day of watching videos or reading articles. You should dedicate the rest of your time to creating.

Many students make creative activities part of their #routine: some write, design, record, or do any creative work, they do it consistently, even if they may not get into Perfection.

These students are role #models for many other students.

Students' creativity inclination makes them #successful in any effort they do in life.

These students believe in creating more and consuming less.I so proud of my students and wish them well in every activity they do in life.

Are you spending lot of time on TV and gossiping please think and try to spend time in creative activities if possible.

I am not Your Property

I am a science teacher in a government school. My next-door neighbors are fond of #dog and they have a pet dog Romi. They treat him very well. They keep him in #kennel outside their house. When I come home from school dog greets me, I feel very happy to see him greeting me.

The other day I was about to sleep after preparing my lecture to be taught in class. Suddenly I saw a dog near me. I greeted him. He said “Madam I am a dog. You know madam I am not capable of taking care of myself without human’s help. Some of my friend's owners sometimes tie my friends up and forget to feed my friends #properly, I do realize those owners must be having some problems at their hands as to why they behave in such a way. But madam sometimes it becomes too much for my friends. I feel #sorry for them.”

Dog further said “Some of my friends (dogs) are abandoned by persons on a forgotten #road. In that condition my friends feel afraid and #lonely. My friends look for the owner and wonder why they left them behind. I feel sorry for my friends. Madam we dogs are not #property that one can throw away and #forget.”

Dog further said, “Madam sometimes if the owner chooses to leave us dogs in a kennel, we get fearful and expect that every sound of footsteps we hear from that moment on will be our owner, coming to find us.”

I said ” Dear dog for me you are not just a dog – you are a living, breathing #creature. If person x chooses to take the dog home, I expect that he will give him (dog) the things a dog needs to be happy and healthy.”

Dog further said ” Madam we dogs expect good food, clean water, a warm bed, and lots of love. Don’t abandon us. Don’t kick us. Don’t leave us when life gets busy. “

I said,” Dear doggy whenever my student brings a pet dog home, I always ask him/her please, commit with me while your pet is alive and never abandon him(dog), otherwise dear student don’t bring pet dog at home .”

I soon realized all this episode was a sweet dream. I shared the same with my neighbors, husband and family.
