Blending in vs standing out

As the schools gates reopen and the children rush in to learn, play and grow, a question remains. This is an enigma that I’ve not been able to wrap my head around so far – why the mad rush to blend in and be one amongst the crowd? Why do we want each child to be like the other child? Why do we want everyone to fare well to the same parameters? 

I have thought about this long and hard and here is a food for thought…what if, we as a society, each individual in it, decides that our strengths and individuality matters? That we need to stand up and embrace our diversity of thoughts, forms and ideas, rather than blend in? What will happen if we decide to be different rather than comply to be the same?

As children join and start school this academic year, we will do our bit to create thinking, unique individuals in this society so they learn to embrace their uniqueness and contribute in ways that are diverse and rich in their own ways back to the society. Our regular weekend programs will start by end of June and beginning of July. It will comprise of three modules – Creative & Critical Thinking, Decision Making & Values and Communication & Interpersonal Skills.

The registrations will open in a few days and more details will be up on the website soon! So do revisit soon!!!
