In Quest of the Last Victory...!!!

I know that this is my second consecutive post giving reviews to any book. Obviously "Gone With The Wind" was on different theme, but this one surely deserved an appreciation for the author, Mr. Navin Gulia, Ex-army officer, who got injured in an accident during the completion of his training at academy, and but now he has reached that point of his life where many of us would never think of reaching, if we're given the same situations to face.


The cover page of his book...!!!


Since the accident he has been on wheel-chair, but never appeared to be on it if we look at his achievements. He has achieved so many things which we, especially those who say they are completely fit, might not be able to achieve. No doubt he's far more mentally fit than any of us...BTW don't ever dare to doubt his physical fitness as he's survived some of the expeditions which we won't even plan to attempt.

Here are his list of achievements:
*Mind of Steel Award, 2010
*Karamveer Purskar, 2009
*National Role Model Award, 2007
*Cavinkare Ability Mastery Award, 2006
*Times of India 'Global Indian', 2005
*Chief of Army Staff Commendation, 2005
*Limca Book 'People of the Year', 2005
*State Award for Adventure Sports, 2004


Well, that's something very special, only few people get that...!!!

PS: Give it a try, you'll surely gain some confidence about facing challenges in life...

PS: That's the first author signed book for me...and I loved it... :)

How I broke the ICE on stage and got comfortable..!!

Image
I had a bad history of stage appearances. Not that, if I reached on stage, someone was gonna come to me and eat me alive, but yeah, that’s how it felt to me. Apart from that what all I felt when I was on stage is tough to describe, but let me make an attempt to the same. Symptoms were as follows: 1) Looking down at the floor or up on the ceiling, 2) Dry lips, 3) Itchy throat, 4) Elevated heartbeat, 5) Trembling legs, 6) Sweat dripping all over me, 7) Lower than normal voice (I’m already known for not speaking much loudly) I’ll come back and add more if any other thing pops-up my head, but right now, apart from someone eating me alive, these 7 points I mentioned above were the key highlights of my mental and physical state whenever I stepped on any stage addressing even a crowd as small as 4–5 people. Yeah, I know 5 people might not sound big to you, but for someone who has stage fear and paranoia, for them it is a LOT. I

My daddy wakes me up at six in the morning, And says, "Wake up, it's time to go to school." My mommy helps me put my uniform, It make me look so cool. Shoes, yes. Tie, yes. Daddy and mommy said, "God bless". Before I forget, ID Card. Yeaassss. Mommy packed my lunch. Yumm... Yumm... Yumm... Going to school is merry. Because I sing with my friends, "Humm... Humm... Humm..." Ooppss, the bus has come, So I ran in a hurry. Driver uncle said, "I'll wait, Please don't worry." I board my bus at seven,  Off it goes.. zooooom. We do our assembly, And then go to classroom. I love doing drawing, Ms. Lily is my favorite teacher. Friendly and always smiling, She calls me "Naughty little creature". We eat our lunch, And play in the afternoon. Sometimes I play hide and seek, Sometimes I play with balloons. We then study math, Two candy and two candy, makes it four. Then we study science, I love how tiger roar. Oooowww, it's time to go h

Behold..!!

Gokarna Main Beach The wind was blowing strong, The waves were crashing high, The sun was scorching hot, Making the soft sand burning wild. The situations were adverse, Yet the water was calming and cold, The sand was still soft, And the walk on the beach was enough to behold.
