………..”Nothing is permanent except the change” Quote by Heraclitus………This quote always helps me to accept the change. To accept change or to bring change, one has to struggle and stretch his/her capabilities beyond the limit. One has to be bold enough to face the consequence of self initiated change. Courage, boldness and vision make every change successful, positive and productive.
I still remember the incident very clearly…… 8 years ago…….. I was on the pivot of my academic and professional life. At that point of time, I had just completed one year of my job after graduation and was very much willing to do my post graduation studies. However, the financial situation of our family was so tight that we could not dare to invest any sum on my further studies.
But I was committed to myself and wanted to go for higher education for my own better perspective. During my training period, I had an entrance exam for post graduate diploma and got its cracked.
To enroll and to take admission for the course, I was supposed to deposit advance fee of Rs. 1.0 Lacs and then 1.5 lacs each year excluding food and hostel facilities. Total expenses to be incurred for the course were about Rs. 5 lacs including food & hostel etc. for 2 years full time course. In addition to these expenses, there would be a loss of Rs. 3.00 Lacs as I would not be earning anything for two years.
At that point of time, I was to take decision; I was to make my mind clear, focused and then was supposed to move ahead. I was clueless. On one side, I could see my bright future and on the other hand there were financial constraints.
In spite of all these hurdles, I decided to select education over financial trouble. I knew that after completing the course, I could earn more and then can support my family in much better way. I then decided to bear all my expenses alone. Later, I got my education loan sanctioned and got myself enrolled for the course.
I experienced a major change in circumstances and in the emotions when there was a shift in my role from working lady to student once again. Few days after the commencement of course were difficult for me but I was determined to make my decision correct. I studied hard there and cleared the exams with good marks. I got nice job of my choice and of my caliber in the campus placement itself. Thereafter in following years, I repaid my entire loan amount and had saved reasonable amount of money.
Now I am doing my service and simultaneously reading other things to keep myself upgraded. At the same time, I am supporting my family and helping others to take education. So my dream of higher education and dream of supporting my family is full filled.
