I am
thinking if an unborn child is kicking his mother’s walls of the womb, does it
mean that he is in a hurry to come and join the team of living. So everything
is pre - tested and pre - learned in womb, I thought, after listening to what my sister in
law has shared with my sister this morning. Life is a game. I believe there is no other
theory in this world that matches with the reality of what sports activities
really describes. So I have a feeling that the child of my brother and his wife
is little impatient! she wanted to join us as immediately as possible.
In life,
you get chances to learn many things, especially when you experience something
personally or as a member of a team. Often
you have to compete with others, even if you are not a member of a particular
party – politics. There are some moments that arrive before you without any
prior notices that you have to defend yourself in some of the occasions of your
life.
Dashes,
kicks, oppositions, critics, judgments, predictions, all these are inevitability of any life.
These days
my thoughts are very strongly tightened with a very new subject (to my
knowledge) called indigenous technology. It is not something that I know or is
interested in knowing, yet the things that every science teaches with regard to
one’s life science is indiscribly important. I have never read a heavily described profile
of a scientist other than few articles about Dr. Arthur C Clerk. Mr. Sri Ranganathan, one of the Consultant of
the OUSL, Faculty of education, gave me a book ‘WINGS OF FIRE’, as a result of
my request and of a short discussion on books, between Mr. Ranganathan and me. So wings of fire, is a biography of Dr. Abdul
Kalam, one of the former presidents of neigbouring India. I haven’t finished
reading the book. Therefore I refrain from analyzing anything about anything
written in the book, putting them in the life sutras and mantras that I have
learned so far. Yet I have a strong feeling that I can see that there are many
things hidden in the book to ‘motivate’ myself. There are very interesting quotes
and in between there are few verses of poetry as well.
Here is one
of them
“Your
Children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of life’s
longing for itself. They come through you but not from you. You may give them
your love but not your thoughts. For they have their own thoughts”
-
Khalil
Gibran
There are
hidden lessons other than the directly shown facts of life, within the quote
given. I think there is a lesson with
regard to ‘teaching and learning processes that should be practiced with regard
to the children of Pre School Education, Pre Primary - Education. They have
their own thoughts and interests , what a teacher should do is to understand or
identify them carefully and let the child grow, improve within his interests ,
until he gets to the stage where he decide of his learning stream
independently. I believe that is what
the almost all the pre school education specialists have discussed in their
theories of teaching and learning, teaching aids and tools.
There is something
else also, written in the book as a saying. Please remember you have to
remember that nobody should get for granted.
“
A good student can learn more from a bad teacher than a poor student from a
skilled teacher”
Iyadurai Solmon (a teacher of Dr.
Kalam)
But , a
teacher and a student relationship today is not somewhat , I believe totally
different to then teacher student relationship. Teachers are described, and analyzed in
various ways, these days, with regard to their specialties and approaches of
teaching.
I believe a
pupil learns a lot at School and also at other institutions and the
chances they get at schools colourizing, sharpen, multiplying their future
goals. Debating skills for instance, I scanned through few home pages of News
Papers yesterday while shopping; I saw a front page headline news formatted in
a brilliant way, adding a good photographs to give it a nourishing look. I cannot
locate the paper in my memory, hopefully I can find and paste the name of the
paper,tomorrow. That is a very interesting
suggestion made by President to the Maithreepala Sirisena, the common candidate
of the opposition, to come to a face to face debate, discussion before the
public (?)
Partying is
no new to Sri Lankan people, though they are very serious when it comes to many
things. This partying news is about a new party that is going to be formed by
Mrs. CBK ( going to head the party it seems) the names of the three individuals mentioned
in the paper. the names mentioned in the paper says a lot about the party that
they are going to be created. I believe that they can easily get data of the
things that they are going to implement (?) from the members it self to fill the
gaps of what is going to be implemented. I am talking about a book launch (?)
No ! don’t
try to emotionally arrest any votes from
the public, dear Minister Vasudewa Nanayakkara. If you say that you are going to commit
suicide if you are unable to cancel the executive presidency, Gosh you should have
done it earlier when hell of a lot of number of leaders were incapable, unable
to caught the LTTTE leader that killed the entire Nation, in multi million way.
Thank goodness we survived. NO its not a matter of the ARMED FORCES, believe
me , I understand those things. That is what you called ‘leadership’ ‘qualities’,
knowledge of right mechanisms etc. it is the same armed forces that was handed
over to the Commander of chief of country’s security. Were there any difficulties with regard to ‘liberty
of Armed forces with regard to decision making or taking actions in the field, I
am unaware, so I am asking a question? What barrier you most then?
It is not
about resources, dear friends, it is about how you use available resources when
it comes to achieving targets.
What some
forget is that no party is handed over any government writing and signing a ‘pin
paththare’ ( if you give something , donate something for free without any
competition, without facing any election, for instance, then you can recon it
as something that you receive for free.
So get what
you want facing the election , without really producing things that easily breakable
through logic or facts, evidences.
Have a
peace of mind, all who contest, support, follows, before election and after election!
