favorite movie for 10th time. Familiar waves of
emotions and nostalgia. In spite of knowing everything
you realize that
there were many things you have completely missed time and again. That there is
always more to it than meets the eye and that the human struggle and effort knows no boundaries for survival and excellence.

(April 28, 2016 - 2:40 am)Great meeting!
That point about reading books is very valid..
I just finished "Suspect" by Michael Robotham. It was a very "rich" experience..
Now, I have picked an author who may get a Nobel soon, if he hasn't received it already: Orhan Pamuk..(book: My name is Red)
Going to school too is a wonderful idea. Play your TISA card well. Tell them that as adult pws, in different responsible positions in life, you are the right person to tell CWS as to what they can expect, hope and work for, in their own lives..Sharing your true stories.. This will have a lot more impact on them than teaching them some "technique"..
Nice to see Dinesh in the group!
Thank you Shobhit and everyone out there in the group..
Yes, nothing should hold you back!
