The Ropes Course was a bit of a Leap in the Dark but I rocked ahead !!!

     There is no iota of doubt that there are numerous lessons to be learnt from the ropes course, foremost among which is self- confidence. I should be confident that whenever I face a problem or encounter a stumbling block in my way, I should work it out persuading my own self that I can do it and come what may. I must know of nothing called desperation, succumb or surrender; nothing is called impossible. I learnt that I must be more adventurous and push myself into doing things I used to evade. The ropes course envisages that Americans used to install self-confidence, pride, optimism and positive thinking in their offspring since their early infancy. As a result they grow up adopting do-it-alone policy. Each one embarks on shaping his lifestyle. In other words, they, out of belief that their own respective society has no room for laggards, inculcate independence-oriented traits in their children. For them, life is no more than an adventure and so is the ropes course. Their mottos are blossom wherever you are planted; be up to every occasion and do not give up. So no wonder that their culture always calls upon them to enjoy whatever life has to offer.
