Q: Out of all that you learnt in your twelve/fourteen years of school, describe one lesson you remember vividly. And why do you [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=growingwithyou.wordpress.com&amp;blog=8118630&amp;post=53&amp;subd=growingwithyou&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

I am often overwhelmed with questions that teem my senses, questions that have no ready answers, like, is [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=growingwithyou.wordpress.com&amp;blog=8118630&amp;post=43&amp;subd=growingwithyou&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

It was the usual routine every morning. Abhi was a boisterous young child, with a disarming smile and a mischievous twinkle in his eyes.
