Rashami Desai – My mother is a teacher. I am proud of her and her upbringing. I was a shy child initially but in school, I became active in cultural activities. My mother is a teacher so I was always a disciplined child. I learned the value of discipline and it has always helped in my life. All children should follow discipline. My mother has taught me that hard work is the only investment that never fails.  My mother is my lifeline. I can’t think of life without her. Her happiness is of utmost importance to me. She is a positive person and one of the greatest influence on me. She has always stood by me through thick and thin.
