The end result...

Success...a 2 syllable word... But the effort it takes to reach there is out of imagination. The vibe it gives at the end is speechless. In fact not the result but it is the effort that needs to be congratulated. 

When I was in my 9th standard, it was my class's turn to conduct the school assembly. The whole responsibility of conducting it was upon me. I had to make everyone practice the whole performance. 

Finally, I've chosen a skit and everything. The complete preparation was over and it was the final day. My thought was that if I won... Our principal needed to call my class teacher onto the stage and let everyone clap for the whole class. The assembly was over and the principal took the mike into her hands. I was behind the stage waiting eagerly. 

Then the voice spoke, "Mrs. Bhanurekha please come on to the stage... You need to be appreciated for bringing up such a good performance". Everyone in the crowd started clapping and shouting. When everyone dispersed... My teacher turned to me and said "Thank you.. These claps were for you... "

Yes... I heard congratulations through those claps that day... They congratulated me...
