If I have to write about a faculty in Christ, it is difficult because I have known a quite a lot who have influenced me in one way or the other. But then, the most special place goes to my first mentor Rita Mallik who made the initial transition of mine from a typical college graduate from Kerala into a multi cultural and diverse College like Christ University a breeze.
She is the synonym of energy- full of positivism and very very energetic. We got along very well from the very first day because we both loved talking and she was a very good listener. My initial days in Bangalore would have been really bad if I did not have these mentoring sessions every day where I could just be me. All because she allowed me to be me with no restrictions.
She had no typical " I know everything" attitude and always talked about her transition in life which helped me a lot. Its very rare for teachers to open up and share their experiences. I loved that about her. If i could achieve something in Christ, I know she had a big role to play in it because she has always championed me.
Ma'm, Thanks for letting me know that having a large heart is the secret of happiness. You are the best!!
PS: This is not because you kept telling that I looked like some actress that you have seen.
