Just a few days back, while chilling out in the winter season, I was assailed by thoughts of the years gone by. I had taken quite a few photographs of the graduating students of grade twelve many of whom I had been acquainted since grade eight when I first taught them. A large number I had taught in the journalism class, and a mere fourteen I had taught in grade twelve, (the majority of my students being this year, grade elevens) and for some I was a mentor (the mentoring having taken place in the corridors and cut-outs). It was then that the lines below came to mind, "Give to the year what belongs to it" and realized it was time I shared some of the photographs I had taken on the twentieth of December, the farewell day that had taken place at the Orana Conventions Hall.
My Resolution for the year-end:
Give to the year what belongs to it,
Take not that hath passed to the next,
Let the new year have what is rightly
Its own! Therefore, I bid you farewell,
Let the past lead to the future, bid you
Well, Pick up your courage and greet
The morrow, to start afresh. Thus do
I share with you vignettes from the
Farewell day, to cherish memories so
Dear, and start afresh for a life ahead.
All the best for the years to come,
May we meet in the future, with
Memories so pleasant!
The Day Before the Farewell, on the way for Dress Rehearsal
At the Farewell, on the twentieth
Last minute advice for J.J.
A sentimental moment-lost in thoughts, Sankalp Sir?
All smiles
Parents, school is over and college next
Sir, where is my identity card?
Kevalia, how does it feel?
Our future C.J.!
The Entrepreneurs
Aryan, any thoughts for a takeover?
Anipreet, what happened to Esha?
Amazing photographs?
Heavy lies that head that bears the crown of a C.R.
Handing over the flame, "Deep se Deep Jale"!
The parents
Lost in thoughts, yes it was an emotional moment!
