It was not all easy but more and more practice boosted my confidence.started remembering all commands or shortcut keys and also steps.today computer/laptop has become my best friend.even at work place and at home, I keep it on whole day.do all my work on it.i daily read newspaper and sometimes open videos and even songs apart from checking e mails.

As I lost eyesight in tenth standard and for 8 years I remained engrossed or occupied in studies, I never use to go out of house alone to do my work.was dependant on parents as they were afraid to send me alone.i visited amdavad blind school at vastrapur.not happy with personal attention given by them.just told me to hold cane or walking stick and move around.this was in 2009 but two years back, I took courage and visited places like anand, amdavad, gandhinagar, surat and Mumbai on my own.my parents initially were very scared but each time I returned home safely their confidence and trust in me increased.i just want to convey message to fellow friends that nothing in this world is impossible.we need to have strong determination or will power and self confidence.nothing is impossible.when going gets tough, tough gets going.just practice, practice, practice.dont give up or lose hope.in this age of competition, keep on learning new things daily.master English and computer as it is need of this modern age.without mobile and computer, our life is in dark, especially for visually impaired and handicapped or divyang people.it is said that champions are never born, they are made.tough times don't last but tough people do.
