If I could classify this as a job, it is the most difficult one I have or will ever do. If it is a mission, it is more important than anyone I can ever dream of undertaking.
I am overwhelmed today with the task at hand.
I go back after over a month of forced and diwali vacation to torn charts, a broken almirah, stolen books and as usual a filthy isolated classroom.
I go back to a dysfunctional school, where nobody cares. And all who care quit because they are so overwhelmed by how things function there.
I go back to kids who have learnt that violence is a way of life, be that physical or verbal, who have seen more than anyone deserves to see in an entire life, who do stuff I just wish I did not know right now.
Its a dark place down here. I am scared today . I dont know why but I am.
