Inspired Life

Dated: 27 th March 2021 One of the most inspiring moments occurred to me during a visit to Kapils Salon, Goregaon (W). The therapist (Jay) asked me to sit comfortably and inquired whether I   required   water/ tea/coffee. I asked for a bottle of water and asked him where to keep the bottle and glasses that I had worn. His answer surprised me! – He said that he was partially blind and could only see from one eye. I suddenly felt a wave of heaviness and sympathy and said sorry to him. Jay became partially blind when he was in his 10th Standard and studied at the Victoria memorial school for the blind. He was in praise of the school and how it takes care of its students and the facilities given to its students.              He cleared the board exams through the use of a writer. As per rules, the writer has to be a grade lower than the one you are appearing in the exams for. He highlighted the difficulties in searching for a writer and learning Braille language.                Ja
