Most people always point out to me that I speak of being
oneself, acquiring knowledge for its sake alone rather than running behind
marks because I had always without an ounce of difficulty received the
attention of others due to my upbringing..
Often have I wondered whether of
being a hypocrite.. For if I was born
and brought up in a low level household and had no access to the kind of
knowledge I right now do, will I still stand by my ideas..
Then it struck me
that little do others know about my life..
As I received the kind of attention I
demanded for it was more than hard for me to be myself..
It was like I had to
constantly upgrade myself inorder to meet the everchanging needs of the people
around me..
I had to ace in all fields and simultaneously carve out a specific
spot for myself among the masses..
So to the world that has constantly
criticized me for my choices and stereotyped me as the ‘ born with the silver
spoon' type, YES I truly was blessed to be born in a place where everything
was at arm’s reach, but because I got everything I desired , I was also
subjected to much worse trails to prove myself than the regular lot does.
Because I received quality education which is denied to many I also had to
bring about outstanding results like you all to please my parents.
After all that I had gone through I say with more firmness
that MARKS DON’T MATTER AS MUCH AS
KNOWLEDGE DOES …
In the long run its
about how much you learned and not how much you scored…
yep! marks are not at all a important thing.but some people rate us with that stupid thing.
