My dear Friends and HMPIANS ,
I am blessed today by Lord Ganesha. It's the biggest surprise I received ever in my life. My learned ,most beautiful,most popular teacher , most loved by our young hearts , disciplined and elegantly dressed school PRINCIPAL of HMPS for 14 years ( Longest innings by any other principal in the history of HMPS ) , who has got President's Medal and many awards for our school , and has travelled all over India and USA , representing Hansraj Morarji Public School visited me .
At 6.05 pm On 20/09/2015 , the door bell rang . Neetika my daughter asked ...? Who is it ...?? I was resting in the bed room . Neetika came running in the bedroom and said " Principal of my school has come to visit you!. I was shocked ... Could not believe my ears . I ran towards the door and opened it . I welcomed my teacher Principal Meenakshiben, who taught me in early 80's Maths . She was accompanied with Sir . She had climbed 2 stairs , all the way to take blessings of Lord Ganesha and here I was so lucky to be blessed by her auspicious presence . We talked , laughed and went down memory lane remembering HMPS, T D Naik sir , Namwar sir, Singh sir , Wagle madam, Gawade sir , S P Dave, sir , Jaswandi , Datar sir & Nikumbh sir, on whom Tare Zameen movie was made by Amol Gupte. I introduced her to my 2 kids Neetika and Jeet . She blessed them. While in conversation with me and Komal she came to know that I too am a teacher in a Medical school for more then 23 years . She and sir were very happy to hear this news. In the midst of our tee a tee , her loving daughter called from Texas , USA on her mobile . We touched her feet and she blessed us . I think , I am the most fortunate student ever to experience this love and affection from a teacher . Sharing with you snaps with dear Meenakshiben.
