The
4th Annual Sport Meet/Cultural Day, 2017
Seeing
through the bright lights of sports cum cultural reflections, all by these kids;
it gives some relief to the body, and waters the souls of those who can’t afford
watering-the-soul in any currencies.
Eyewitness
is better than to be told, and to be told in reality of undoubtable stance is
better than false eyewitness.
The
questions which arise often regarding the cultural differences in the world has
got to its peak, to put curiosity in the mind of the concerned. The fact is,
peeping through their distinctive nature got nothing of distinction to say, if
not for language of such culture. The practices of sports and cultural day, as witnessed
here in India is not far from that of Africa (Nigeria), or any other continent
of the world. The only thing one can perceive is just the little differences in
their dances, and what name such culture is called. Apart from these, the
costume is almost the same, and that brings the global entity of humanity to a
trace of one ancestor – these kids at KMR INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL are a verifiabletool of proof.
Standing
in lines, elevated in the spirit of admiration and acknowledgement in respects
to other cultures all over the world. Though happening here in India, but it puts
a humane attachment of what can be said to be ‘Culture in diversity’, which
only kids can be used to innocently and sincerely portray to be what has no
stain in it, as their minds and thoughts are yet tender. Their costume speaks
better than words can tell, and which in no doubt is expressed through their dance
steps, and the smiles that reflects across their ‘tender cheeks’.
Placed
on the platform are kids, who, without the obvious revelation of their skin colour,
or an eyewitness would be taken for any other kids, and one might think it’s all
about Nigerian kids or those from any other part of the world. But the fact
remains that human nature and characteristics has no strict or rigid symbols –
all are same in the head and level of human acknowledgement.
Colours
of rain (falling on the umbrellas) – what can one think of this, or assume it
could be? What is the meaning of colours of rain? Does rain have colours, or could
it be a metaphor to paint lively the event? Anyone should understand that what
kids do can be interpreted by them alone, whether it is wrong or right. And
when anyone tries to correct them, it would fall on rocky soils. This is not to
say that kids are foolish or yet ignorant, not knowing what they say. It takes the
eye of those who feel the ‘inside heart’ of kids to comprehend what they say,
and how they see it.
The
concentration of kids in some issues of life is beyond the comprehension of an
ordinary eye, because their inspiration and insightful notions can be seen as
metaphysical.
Here,
they are raising up their umbrellas in assumption to have some pour on them
accompanied by some melodious dances. That’s the genuine nature of kids. Adults
cannot do this, because they are adults, and adulthood is unquestionably a
period when man is denied the joy of ‘freely-giving-without-dilution’. This is
to say that any adult found in the midst of those kids would be labeled a gest
or ‘adult-kid’, and that is why the world of kids is the best.
In
conclusion, the question is, would you as a school Principal, children Coordinator
(in different areas), Parent, Guardian or an Elder allow your kids to
participate and flower the water-flow of other cultures other than yours? Many would
say ‘yes’ to this. But how flexible and easy does it seem to let happen? Anyone who love and enjoy childhood, either
their own or any growing children around will definitely see through what kids
see.
·
The wish they can fly to the skies like
the eagle
·
They wish to travel round the world, by
physical exploration, visual realism, or even let them do something to feel
those places they long to visit.
·
Kids wish to see the global community
right in their schools, homes, churches, social gatherings and other places
they can be allowed to perform.
·
Kids wish to get into your head and
perform some mechanical activities to let you understand how much kid they are
·
They wish to see their big dream come to
pass – to make the world a better place; and that is why they sincerely engage
in some events of ‘cultural diversity’, which might bring the world to an understanding
of unification.
·
Kids wish not to wish to grow older –
they actually know that getting old is less worth childhood.
·
They wish to do something nobody has
ever done, but they question how it could be possible – it’s time you let them
explore through what they love doing.
·
Kids wish to create their own community,
as ‘KIDS’ ESTATE’ in order to push away anything that could thrust them into
jeopardy.
·
Kids wish to have their own kids (which
is only possible in their stream of consciousness), so that they can take care
of those imaginary kids of theirs, just to show parents and guardians how much
care they need.
·
Kids are kids, and wish to be loved for
no reasons.
This
exploration here in India is a source of joy to those who witnessed the day. What
kids do cannot be undone, especially their capability to draw maps of joy in
the heart of those who never planned to be joyous. However, it is not just
about the kids alone, but also about those who care to see what kids can
contribute to the society – Parents, Guardian, School Heads and Teachers,
children’s Coordinator, and others. These are got to be appreciated for making
good kids – just like those at KRM International School, Madurai.
