An Unknown Road

By Ankita Parkhad
Nobody knows where I go
I don't know either
I only know I'm headed somewhere
The word "somewhere" shapes the road ahead

The more I walk, the more I create my path
The more I create, the more clarity I gain
The more clarity I have, the more calm I feel inside
I experience inner peace

Then, I need no outer confirmation
No outer guidance
No outer suggestions
Only the road unfolding with me
Creates the universe for me

By Ankita Parkhad
  Comprehension, inventiveness, direction, and criticism: intelligence is contained in these four words- Alfred Binet Alfred Binet was a French psychologist who was known for his first practical IQ test, the Binet- Simon test. In 1904, the French Ministry of Education asked Alfred Binet to make an instrument for students who did not learn effectively from regular classroom structure so that they could give them remedial classes. In collaboration with Theodore Simon, Binet published revisions of his test in 1908 and 1911. After graduating from law school in 1878, Binnet planned to follow his father as he was a physiologist and enrolled in medical school.
