The Sting of Words
The Sting of Words. " You can never become Doctor. Don't even think about getting into medical college. " These harsh words said by a Teacher to me in 12th Standard after seeing my performance in weekly tests. I was struggling with Physics. However hard I was trying,the required performance and scores was just not reached. The words stung hard. As predicted, my scores in Physics in Board exams did come low and I couldn't reach the cutoff to secure a Medical seat in Mumbai. I worked harder and got 10th rank in State quota of the All India Pre Medical test conducted by MGIMS, Sewagram. 5 and half years later.....I did become a Doctor. Do I remember the teacher.....No. But the sting of her words.....memory of the pain it caused to me.....Remain Forever. Words are like that huge wave..... Comes hits you .... Goes back to the sea..... But the debris of the sea thrown by the waves at the shores..... Remain forever. Nobody remembers the magnamity of the Wave...
