Turning point of my life

Today our “Katha Baha” program was conducted by a group which is included me also. I had to invite & thank our guest lecture Mr. Amila Wijewardhana. I could manage the salutation well. This can be considered as a turning point of my life. Because in my all university life; I was a follower, but not a leader. But today Kelum who is the student leader of “Katha Baha” committee, offered me the opportunity to conduct the program. This opportunity gives me a chance to test my hidden skills which were undergone because of many reasons. I was a laughing stock for our batch mates because of my some weakness in my personality & communication skills. But today I realize my potential. I was not given any leadership in any functions, but today kelum did it. I know there were big mistakes I made. But now I know that I am also a member of this world. Now I know that I also able to do some thing for this society.

Now I have started a new life. This is not a sudden change. I realized many of things about this world in my training place. I worked hard for more functions in training place as a team but credit was gone to others those who with good communication skills. So I realize that I must come forward. Other best influencer in my life is Ben. My room mate, Ben showed me my weakness. He told me to become a leader but not a follower. He told me to reduce my shyness and to come forward.

My life began to change when my web log was appeared Prof. Ajith de Alwis. He did a very good comment & appreciation. He is a great hero for me & that comment was a very big one for me. This is the day I realize my value after my parents give me my life.

There was weakness in communication skills in English. But Dr. Shantha Amarasinghe came across with this & he consulted me to improve it. He arranged a course in English department & offered me a chance to improve my skills. I am not telling that I am a best speaker in world now. But I know that I am a valuable person in this world.

I have to say one thing. I have not blessed with many things. I am dark in complexion & not a handsome guy. I have some financial problems. But I am very rich with good persons & their blessing. In my school life although I was not a good-looking child teachers were very much attached to me. Some of them were loved me same as my mother do. Because of many people & many reasons now I know my potential. Gods are not living in heaven, they are living with us.
