Extra Step!!

Whether the person is a friend or foe, it does not matter at all. Calm down the ego and other apprehensions and take the extra step to complete the 'chhoti duty', as you would do as a fellow person. Leaving aside the consequences, I bet, it would give you immense happiness and pleasure. Eventually, you would realize that it was your ego and your own thinking that you were fighting with. Neither the personality nor the behavior of the other person was the aspect that was disturbing you.

First Performance!!!

A 'first time' to be added to my journal......my first on-stage rendition of Carnatic classical music ( though as a part of large group)!! The point underlying this is......after 27 years of starting my music lessons, this is the FIRST time I felt relaxed, confident and comfortable singing for the audiences. The most remarkable high is that I fought my fear of facing them. The entire credit goes to the 30-day long practice sessions organized by my Guru!! This day and these moments are all the more precious for me, as my elder son is also a part of the group and it is his first performance too!!
