A nice way to start the day. I am cheerful today and look forward to a good day ahead. I want to give my best to the class and would not anything, at any cost, let me deprive of that right. It indeed is a good day. Today is our marriage anniversary, and to be specific it is 28th marriage anniversary that we are celebrating today. I Thank God to be merciful to us for all these years. The small ups and downs at the personal and professional level, not withstanding, it has been a peaceful life together.
The day went well. In the evening the “whisperer” and the “outspoken” came to meet me along with another student. The “whisperer” was a bit worried about me as during the day he was able to perceive something on my face that told him about my mental state. I had to tell them about the happenings at the professional front. Oh, the “outspoken” put on the adult ego mantle the moment he heard about my predicament and told me in world-of-fact kind of tone that to let a comment rob me of my mental peace was not worth the effort. As why had I to prove myself of worth in front of people who themselves were not at that level. His words, though, rough at times were honest and I thought of the maturity he had at this age. He told about the futility of waiting for justice to happen as it does not ordinarily happens in average person’s life.
Leaving all discussions, we all had dinner together and ultimately celebrated our 28th marriage anniversary. Another good thing was that the “whisperer” fulfilled his promise by making tea for all of us but it was an effort to gulp that tea, is another story!
