Did you know that March 28th, 2003, is an incredible day? Something amazing happened on that day, marking the beginning of greatness. :) Yes, you probably guessed it already—it was the day I was born. Now, imagine me making the same awkward face as that emoji.So, yes, I was born on March 28th, 2003, Yelahanka, Bangalore at the Railway Hospital. Please ignore the reversed order of the address; it doesn't really matter. Adding a little spice and humor to my birth story, I wanted to make it more interesting for you to read...Fast forward to some not-so-interesting forgotten moments of my early childhood. Let's start with the first competition I ever entered, which was either in 1st or 2nd grade (I don't remember the exact year). It was a running race, and to my surprise, I won 3rd place. I was overjoyed, but my happiness was short-lived when I realized that it was just a consolation prize. It turned out that everyone received such prizes as they had extras. I mistakenly thought there was some mistake and they would soon correct it. In reality, the 3rd prize was just a participation certificate in a different form. I was a little sad because I wished I had won the first prize like my friends and received real recognition. This memory has stayed with me.However, as they say, for every sad event, there is an equal and opposite happy event. That's Kapil's First Law of Life. I can't precisely tell you how the pain you've felt will be compensated, but I can assure you that somehow, it will be. I'm not an astrologer, but I can share this truth: if you've experienced pain in the past or are feeling it now, the future may bring you equal or even more happiness, if you're lucky. Don't feel compelled to believe me, and please be patient and read the whole story.I'm just 19 years old as I write this, and you might think I haven't experienced enough to say these things. However, the number of years isn't as important as the diversity of life experiences. My life has already taught me many lessons, and while I'm uncertain about my future success with what I've learned, I can strive to be at least half a good person. Oh, I almost forgot to introduce myself. My name is Kapil Adarsh S.A. I'm 19 years old, have a brown complexion, and am a bit tall and well-built (or so I believe). I am Indian, as you already know, and my mother tongue is Tamil. Not to brag, but I can speak five languages. :) Okay, let's end the introduction here.
