What
we find most fearsome is the month of April. The reason is very obvious because
of EXAMS. April is the month of Exams, a month which is detested mostly because
of the tension it creates before the exam and the fear that is created after
the exam until the results come. Needless to say, month of May is the most
wanted and often desired month because of the Holidays.
What
is the purpose of exams?
Its
aim is not to find out what we don’t know but on the contrary to bring out what
we learned after a year long preparation.
What
is the purpose of Holidays?
It's said that holidays are for rest
and recuperation, but they can also mean boredom and isolation.
Holidays are not meant for us to become couch potatoes right
in front of TVs and Video games. Holidays serve as reminders of the purpose of
life. Utilize some of the time reflecting on such questions as, "Why am I
here?" “Am I doing the right thing?” "How much have I accomplished
for the purpose of being here?"
These questions do not have an easy answer. It can take a
lifetime to figure it out. We tend to run away from such questions because they
make us uncomfortable, even depressed. That’s the reason we vile away our time
in unnecessary, non productive activitites.
Don Bosco would say wisely, Holidays are not change of
occupation but change of atmosphere, which implies that learning should
continue to happen even after schooling. Don Bosco strongly believed that
education has no walls. That’s his philosophy of life. Make them RUN JUMP and
PLAY so that they don’t have time to indulge in the act of sin or engage
themselves with the occasions to sin.
