I gave the students a topic to write on "It is better to walk alone than to walk with a crowd going in the wrong direction".Here is what Vanshika writes.
Is it important or better to walk alone than to walk in a crowd going in the wrong direction? Does it mean to walk alone or does it mean never walk in a crowd because you may not see the way? This statement above gives me an opportunity to answer some doubts and questions.
Let me start with some examples of great people who walked alone when they thought they were right.
Savitribai Phule who fought for girls' education, Sudha Murthy who stood for girls doing men's jobs,Malala who went against terrorists for the sake of education and Priyanka Kadam from our school who is fighting for discipline and manners.They all had their own choices which are defining them now.They didn't believe anyone blindly.They thought what is good and bad for them.They were against society because they thought differently.
When they did so, slowly the society too followed them.Ultimately truth always wins. Now you have the choice in your hand, do you want to walk alone with a clear conscience or walk with a crowd without thinking. The choice is yours!
