I agree with what you have written about SK Sir, and would like to add that it requires a sensitive person to absorb things the way you do. And I think you are damn right about teaching and being an administrator... I too belong to your category. I guess being a teacher requires more sensitivity and to be an effective administrator, one needs to be less carried away by the heart...<br />Thanks for putting your feelings down here. Brought back memories for me too...Deepesh Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12287555068831234180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102451431033041663.post-42489599642359208132013-07-31T22:51:47.761+05:302013-07-31T22:51:47.761+05:30And he will make that a wonderful school, I'm ...And he will make that a wonderful school, I'm sure.Tomichan Matheikalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05037872309096060126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102451431033041663.post-738654551168290152013-07-31T18:59:32.980+05:302013-07-31T18:59:32.980+05:30He sounds like a true leader.

He was like a father to me during my stay in the school. Your HM is your father in a boarding school.<br /><br />But his reign had all the vices of a typical administrator. He was corrupt. And as you probably know, he favored certain kind of students who would present to him expensive gifts. The running joke was - 'He is collecting it for his daughter's dowry'.<br /><br />I personally gained immensely under his patronage.Sidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18255027412821396635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102451431033041663.post-72210556672695394392013-07-30T17:56:49.128+05:302013-07-30T17:56:49.128+05:30All my writing comes from two sources only, Vidhi:...All my writing comes from two sources only, Vidhi: the heart and the brain.Tomichan Matheikalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05037872309096060126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102451431033041663.post-58900272240566795972013-07-30T17:56:17.116+05:302013-07-30T17:56:17.116+05:30If wishes were horses... well, variety is the spic...If wishes were horses... well, variety is the spice of life and there's quite a lot of spice around, not necessarily good for health :)Tomichan Matheikalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05037872309096060126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102451431033041663.post-14031536640413791782013-07-30T17:55:08.224+05:302013-07-30T17:55:08.224+05:30It was nice writing this.
