I wasn’t that tall, you know...I mean I have never been
considered to be tall.
Well, I wasn’t mocked around much but a sense of displeasure did
persist among my family members for not matching up with their genes. Most of them
were considered to be the blessed ones and yes they never forgot to sympathize
with me.
But that made me more vulnerable till I joined civil engineering at one of the premier institutes of the state and successfully escaped their clutches.
Today, when I was being awarded for designing the tallest dam
of the state, nobody just forgot to take pride of
their genes.

Not tall in stature, but lofty in ambition. Excellent.
