I have always been quite studious during my school days. Teachers always had great expectations from me. During my 10
th std just a week before my board exams were to commence, my father was diagnosed with a clot in his brain. This unwelcome news shook my family quite a bit. My father was admitted in the hospital and due to some medical conditions he couldn’t recognize us. All he could remember about his life was his school days and nothing about his present life. I was heartbroken and hopeless that our lives were going to change forever. I didn’t want to let down my teachers, parents and most importantly myself. So, I started going to hospital and study there. I didn’t let the fate decide my destiny, I fought back to create one for myself. My father started gradually responding to the medication and I understood the practicality of the situation and didn’t let anything distract me. I took my exams and performed well. When my father came home recovered I got my results and he was very happy to learn that his little daughter topped the school. So, how I overcame the challenges in my life?I believed that my capabilities are infinite. Not because I secured first rank in my school but because the circumstances were such that if I focused on the problems, they would become stronger than me.
