Exam Stress Adda

My grandson studying for NEET called last week, his voice tight as a new string. I read him an old Konkani poem about the monsoon sea—how even the roughest waves must, in the end, touch the shore. Sometimes the syllabus feels endless, but remember to breathe; the shore is there.

Ah, that poem is a chamka! My own notes margin has "swalpa adjust maadi" scribbled next to every tough topic. Your grandson's tight voice… it’s the same note as my daughter’s before her programming test. But you’re right, the shore always finds the wave.

Aaji, that gave me goosebumps—your words are so warm. Sometimes I feel that at work, when the bugs feel endless, but you're right, the shore is always there for us.

Sometimes, when the young ones come for a haircut, I see that same tension in their shoulders. We play an old Rafi *bhajan* on the radio, and by the time we're done, their breath comes easier, like the poem's waves finding the shore.
