Background ( भूमिका )

i think my thoughts began the day i learnt to speak,  but i cant be sure. My earliest memory is an image of a newspaper article in "Sahara" newspaper at the bottom of the front page. The article talked about a mission to tie radio tags around the legs of migratory cranes to track their movement". I am certain and completely confident that i had started thinking before that day even though i do not know what day it was. Oddly i get this feeling that i was in third class when i read this article. I always picture my third grade teacher when i picture that article, but i know that it's not possible since i remember my second class teacher and i remember my first class teacher. I even remember my first class teacher's name. She is called poonam ( i use "is" whenever i am not sure if a person is dead or alive). Anyway, i am sure that the newspaper article is my first memory, so i must have read that article when i was in first class. And from that day i have been thinking, reading, storing knowledge, analyzing and synthesizing.
