I wish to share an open letter that I read in a social networking site , that I found few years back.. As I was checking my database of Dravid's collection, I found this letter that I saved few years back.. Hope you all like it.. The original was posted on April 15th, 2010 and I read it few days later in the web..
Here's a letter from a parent who was working in a IT senoir management position to Dravid
An open letter to a real life Hero
Dear Mr. Dravid
It has been on the back of my mind to write this note for the past two weeks, but I could make it only today.
My kids apparently happen to attend the same school as your kid. In the last couple of years, of the many days I had been to school to drop or pickup my kid, I have seen you quite often in the school – you were also visiting school to drop / pickup your kid.
The very first day when I spotted you – you were giving me a feel that you only wanted to be considered as ‘yet another’ parent coming to the school to drop/pickup his kid. You were almost hiding behind a parked car, trying to avoid any eye contact with the small crowd of parents who were waiting there. I was actually amused to note that an international sports personality like you was looking uncomfortable in the very small crowd – maybe it was just my perception, but you were trying to keep to yourself.
