crossroads

Life has a strange way of bringing you down to some crossroads when you have to decide the direction you want to take from then on. I am at one such. Having reached 60 years of age I am at a traditional point one retires from professional life. I am just out of an assignment and could easily take that path.

I do, however, feel I have quite a mileage left still. I have always wanted to teach. My father and grandfathers have been teachers, may be that's why. Maybe I understand things well and then love to explain that to others! I have found that to be true all along my student days as well as during my professional life.

During student years loved to lead informal study groups that always formed. Similarly jumped at an opportunity to train others whenever such opportunities arose during working years. I really, truly enjoyed the experience too. So why not!!
