When I was a small girl, I used to see small kids like me, going to school by bus with a cute smile. At that stage it was a great dream for me to study in a private school. My mother took me and my brother to the hospital, before i could realize the reason, I saw my father lying on the bed without any movement. Suddenly my mind analyzed that he had died from coronary heart disease. The pain was unbearable and I remember crying while holding my father.
Financial Crisis faded away my dream to join an English medium school. My mother got an opportunity to meet an Isha Volunteer on one fine day. That's the day my dream got nourished. I got admission in Erode Isha Vidhya through scholarship.
Till now I am studying because of the caring hands of Isha. As I joined in kindergarden i started learning basic methods, but my interest was towards sports. I had a spark to play shuttle at class VIII. With the help rendered by our PET teachers i took practice everyday in the evening.
The positive reinforcement given by my friends made me to participate at zonal level matches. I was a runner in most of the matches. But as days passed on I got third place in national level shuttle competition. This small victory kindled my quest to upgrade in my life. I am bold enough to solve my problems. At present I am in class X concentrating both my academics and sports.
