Walking Past Childhood
It took me 15 years to create who I am today. Everyone is unique in their own way, for me it dates back to when I was born-31st December 1997. Makaing me a Capricorn, known to be a fun loving and hard working person.
I was born at the break of dawn and the sunrays falling on my face gave me my name-'Jyoti', meaning 'light'.
My hobbies of today have links from my childhood. I used to roam around the house with my milk bottle in my hand, once the milk had finished the bottle would become my football. That's when the seedlings of football were placed in my life. Football has become my passion. I really enjoy playing it. Secondly, I've always been a music buff. It all started with my favourite toy which was my Barbie radio. Music is one of the most powerful medium, it has the power to effect one's soul to the deepest. In specific I like soulful, melodious music with lyrics that touch the heart and soul.
Even being a kid i was no less than a tiny enterpreneur. i always used to tell my grandmother to start a bussiness of mending clothes like replacing buttons,etc. Even today I would like to have a business of my own.
You need some confidence to say that you are not wrong when you wear your right shoe on your left foot. I see this confidence of mine as my strength.
The thing that i dislike the most is a lie. It is said 'to hide one lie a person has to say another hundred lies'. I also dislike people who do not give importance to their work. As in my eyes, 'work is worship'.
My mantra for life is give smiles and spread happiness as much as you can and it will come back to you in doubles.
