Failed…so what? You Will Pass Also!

Today, like every year the results for CBSE 10^th would be announced. The news channels will celebrate the toppers. The nation will swoon over the super brilliant brains. The sweets sharing images will be plastered across all TV sets. The news anchor will gleefully announce that some 83-84% students have cleared the exams.  Interviews of toppers would be broadcast on TV channels and printed in newspapers.

Amid this hoo- ha, the nation would forget those 16-17% of students who would fail to clear the exams. Now, the families of these 16-17% of students would feel seriously dejected, and not to mention the terrible trauma that a failed student goes through. 

Now what I am trying to outline is that when we celebrate the success of students, we should not forget the failure of students. If the education system chirps when its students succeeds,then it should cogitate also on why some don’t succeed.  For successful students there are many accolades to bask under,but I think that it is failure students who need these accolades the most. You must be wondering why?

The reason is that they must be knowing that they were weak at some subjects, they must have tried to overcome the weakness, they could have shun the exams but they took it. And when the results came they failed. It takes a lot of courage to tread a path where you already know that the outcome could be negative. So they deserve the accolade for putting up a fight, for being gritty.

Furthermore, however we wish the identical education pattern to be absorbed and observed equally by differently equipped brains, we will not succeed. And when a brain was not naturally equipped to handle Maths,Physics or Literature for that matter, it failed to produce the desired result. So, there should be no shame attached to failing in subjects for which the brain was not designed in the first place. When a student fights the battle of the exam with a brain not inclined to these subjects, he/she should be lauded for making an effort that was a herculean task for him or her

And when a school cherishes the glory of their successful students, it should also inspire the failed students to do better next time by providing extra classes and psychological cushion. Because, it is the psychology of your mind that tells you to suicide when you fail. We must do everything as a society to curb the suicidal tendency in failed students. 

When someone fails for the first time the world comes crashing down, it feels that things will never change and in these moments of diametrical dejection the thought to end life reverberates in mind. We should tell the inexperienced and tender minds that failing is just the part of fighting and the time doesn’t remain the same. Things change and improve in this world, so they should not lose hope and look forward to a better tomorrow. 

Moreover, I think that this year there should be interviews of students, on TV and in print media ,who failed last year but passed this year.

And at last, we should refrain from being a society that is full of uncle and aunties who are unmindful of the pain that a failure student goes through.

But before PTE Academic,I would like to give you some grounded advice on the situation that one has to face while studying abroad. So far you have stayed in India where in case of any emergency you had support of your parents and friends, but in abroad; you will have to tackle emergency situations on emotional front on your own. In the beginning, you will feel alone and misfit in foreign culture but you will have to give yourself time to get accustomed to the environment there.

अतीत के पन्नो पे, कुछ लफ्ज़ लिखे हैं ,

कुछ नाम, कुछ लोग, कुछ नक़्श लिखे हैं I

कुछ पन्नो पे ,एक चौक , एक चौराहा, एक सड़क मिलता है,

कुछ पन्नो पे, एक मुस्कान, एक हँसी ,एक ठहाका, बेधड़क  मिलता है I

कुछ सफो पे, जानी पहचानी रातें मिलती हैं,

कुछ सफो पे, जानी पहचानी बातें मिलती हैं I

कुछ पन्नों पे, सपनो के कुछ टुकड़े मिलते हैं ,

कुछ पन्नो पे, अपनो के कुछ मुखड़े मिलते हैं I

आज लगता है के काश...

सपनो के कुछ टुकड़े अपने होते

रेत का घर !

दरवाज़े पे नाम था अपना,

यही घर इनाम था अपना I

ना जाने कितने सपने थे इनमे,

ना जाने कितने अपने थे इनमे I

दीवारों पे छुटकी  की रंगाई थी,

रसोई में दुनिया की महँगाई थीI

आँगन में मुन्ने की किलकरी थी ,

बरामदे में कोयल की गुलुकारी थी I

दीवारों में लोहा सना था,

छत पर छप्पर प्यारी थी I

सब कुछ सही था,

सब कुछ यहीं था I

पर एक दिन एक हवा चली,

हमें लगा की सबा चली,

लेकिन वो तो आँधी थी,

ले उड़ी सब उम्मीदें जो ,

हमने बाँधी थी I

खाक हो गया वो जो सपना था ,

राख हो गया वो जो अपना था I

वो रेत का घर था जो ढह गया,

एक हवा चली सब बह गया I

उम्मीद थी गुलबों की,वास्ता पड़ा है काँटों से...

उम्मीद थी गुलबों की,वास्ता पड़ा है काँटों से,

उम्मीद थी उजलों की,वास्ता पड़ा है रातों से I

अजीब  सा है रास्ते का मंज़र,

डर लगता है,

कहीं खून बिखरा है कहीं खंज़र I

पहले आँखों में काजल था,

आज फकत सियाही है,

पहले सिने में सोना था,

आज गूंगी गवाही हैI

किस्मत का बदलना,

एक सच्चाई है,

वैसे ही जैसे ,

पानी पे लिखी, लिखाई है I

कभी कभी कुछ जाने पहचाने ,

अंजाने से लगते हैं I

कभी कभी कुछ रातों के सपने,

बेगाने से लगते हैं I

कभी कभी कुछ होठों के टुकड़े,

अफ़सानो से लगते हैं I

कभी कभी साँसों के चिथड़े ,

एहसानो  से लगते हैं I

कभी कभी शोलों के ओले ,

परवानो से लगते हैं I
