Some moments that change lives...

It was one of those warm summer afternoons, it was my first day at the Chemistry tuition; climbing up the stairs, I enter this room, a bit nervous, not too sure as to what is in store...a few benches and the few occupants, obviously girls, attracts my attention, when I am brought back to the reality with this coarse sound saying "Anil, thaa ividae ingottu vaaa..." and that was him K. C. Rajkumar. Every other day of my life, I look back at Anil from the mid eighties, a dark, lean, not-so-confident, middleclass boy, who could hardly lift his head, who could barely have confidence in staring at his own image in the mirror.
That was, in a few weeks time, slowly getting transformed, dark, lean was not changing but boy'o'boy the confidence was just increasing by every passing minute - that was him, Raj Kumar, who instilled the confidence in me, he changed my life, I still believe, it was that moment when he called me by my name from the back bench. Never before had I gone to the last bench in any class...I just walked into this glory, into this world of boomin' confidence. Thanks KC, You are just awesome buddy, just amazingly awesome. You dont know/realise what you have done, but whatver you did just changed my life...it one of those moments...
