The Incident That I Still Recall With Happiness
The hard-earned joys are the sweetest. One such joy I experienced in my 10th class when I was selected to represent my school at the Inter-School Declamation Contest in our city.
It all started in the month of July. My English teacher approached me in the middle of my Science class. Seeing the papers in her hand, I immediately guessed why she had so earnestly called me out of the class. She said, ‘Our school has received an invitation to participate in the Inter-School Declamation Contest in our city, and the Principal has asked me to prepare you for the same. I want you to win the competition', she continued, ‘Here is the list of topics, let me know which topic you want to prepare. I will give you the script tomorrow.'
There were quite a many interesting topics. However, I selected the topic 'It is better to have tried and failed than never to have tried at all.' The teacher gave me an inspiring script for the speech. I was given three free periods to prepare for the speech every day until the contest. I read the script hundreds of time. The English teacher would hear me speak 5 times every day, correct my pronunciation, instruct me on modulation as the speech demanded. Thus word by word, sentence by sentence I perfected my speech. Principal also heard my speech in her office and gave me some invaluable tips. A day before the Declamation Contest, I was asked to deliver my speech in the morning assembly. The entire school responded to the ending of my speech with clapping thunder! It enthused me with confidence and self-belief.
The morning of the competition arrived. I along with my teacher reached the host school's auditorium. I didn’t feel nervous a bit. When my turn came, I just gave a flawless rendition. I received a standing ovation from the audience. At the end, the judges declared the result. I jumped out of my chair three feet high, when my name was announced as the first runner up. I was very happy. Though I was expecting the first prize, even the second prize gave me a lot of contentment. I received a cash prize of rupees 10000 along with a trophy and a certificate.
At my own school I was overwhelmed with congratulations. I was applauded in the morning assembly next day. My own school also awarded me rupees 10000. Thus I had enough money to buy a new laptop for me. When I look in retrospect I feel so proud of my efforts and the rewards that followed them. The feeling of achievement after struggle is the best form of happiness a human can feel. It surpasses all other forms of happiness.
