As far as I can remember, in my childhood days I wanted to be a college proffesor! At that time many of the big colleges were in the hands of various church missions. Later on, they were nationalized, so I had to change my dream. My family admitted me into pre-medical group in college, though I never wanted to be a doctor. My education earned jobs in pharmceutical industry, but my childhood dream was still alive, and I became an English language tutor, which I still am!

When in college, one of my subjects was Applied Psychology. I studied Freudian Psycholgy, then. According to Sigmund Freud,people can, by use of psychoanalysis, reenact and resolve repressed conflicts, especially childhood conflicts with (or about) parents. In other words, early childhood period has a great effect on what one becomes when he or she grows up! This is so because un-wholesome experiences of childhood are repressed into the subconscious and need to be recalled in a dreamy trance state with the help of an analyst! How much of this fact, is a still unresolved debalte!
