I am very tiresome of this personality development class in our concern. Every month we will have to give a speech on a topic that should be interesting as well as innovative. And last month I had to give a speech for which I struggled a lot. I kept on thinking of a good topic the whole day in office. Somehow I decided to speak on “My mother”. It started very well like,“There are three classes of people in this world – theist, atheist and agnostic. But the only God accepted by all classes of people is “Mother”. I applauded myself and tried to develop it. But I had no other words other than mother and God. With frustration, I dropped that topic.

            After returning home I kept on fishing for topics. Suddenly I thought,  “Why can’t I speak on “Tommy and I”?” And I started writing “Tommy is my dog and I am its boss.” Even Tommy would have laughed if I have spoken this on that day. So I dropped that topic also and tried for some other good one.

            I was really frustrated as I used to get chain of thoughts don’t really intend to.But when I was desperately I didn’t even get a topic to speak on. I just went to my room and fished for a topic for more than two hours but in vain. At lastI got a spark, “Why shouldn’t I speak on these difficulties I face in fishing for a topic?” I tried to summarize all the events I faced when searching for a topic under the title “My journey in search of a topic”   and practiced the same. “What a brilliant idea?” said my mind to me.

            I gave a speech on “My journey in search of a topic” that day and received an ovation that would have been audible in heaven . Somehow I managed that day with this topic. What am I going to do the next time if I face the same difficulties in searching a topic as I have already spoken on my journey in search of a topic ?
