Off to a new beginning...

With exams finally over, it's now possible to concentrate time and energy towards one thing that I've been looking forward to so much - research project - my very first attempt at a major one... My thoughts at this time - I should get a supportive mentor... I should try and channelize my project to an area of my interest... things should fall nicely in place and this summer should really be spent in a fruitful manner...

This is the opprtunity that'll allow me to think "out of the box" and play with my imagination - try out new things - without the fear of failing...

Fear of failing - it's indeed a big factor that holds us behind.. while we study, while we socialize, it's one factor that everyone wishes to overcome... We are more often than not engaged in projecting ourselves the way we would like to see an "ideal" person.. In the process, at times, we may tend to loose our own individualism... Each person is different.. there is nothing "absolutely ideal" in this world.. it should not even be sought after.. Else we may just be a collection of "by the book" behaving animal rather than beautiful humans with beautifully different characteristics...

i disagree whn u say we shall behave animal like while seeking to be ideal humans..In fact, the very process of reaching the ideal could be interesting and beautiful..
