EDITOR’S VOICE
EDITOR’S VOICE
After a month of waiting eagerly, IMA Chrysalis is BACK! We are pleased to release the 3rd edition of the saga in IMA.
After four months in the IMA campus, the word “home” has become more synonymous with our dormitories. We have formed great bonds with our friends and the place has become something of our own. The extended hours in the institute has become a routine and people are now liking it.
The most important event that took place in this period was our first trimester exams when we got the first taste of what exactly IMA is all about. Just after this, as we were putting off our thinking caps, we were greeted by the advent of VC (Virtual Class).
The VCs have come both as a boon and a bane for the students. Standardization and uniformity has been achieved but we compromised on the benefits of the interactive sessions. But life has its own flipsides and of course the grass always looks greener on the other side.
Painting by: Koel Ghosh (B)Another major change was the change in the Editorial team for IMA Chrysalis and this is our first offering as a new team; an effort to continue the great work done by the previous squad. So we would like to take this opportunity to thank the previous committee for the fabulous work they have done and the way they have assisted and guided us in our endeavour for the third edition. Your feed back would be highly appreciated.
Happy reading!

Mother
Mother
There is no love, like a mother's love, no stronger bond on earth....
like the precious bond that comes from God,
to a mother when she gives birth.
A mother's love is forever strong,
never changing for all time...
and when her children need her most,
a mother's love will shine.
God bless these special mothers,
God bless them every one...
for all the tears and heartache,
and for special work they have done.
When her days on earth are over,
a mother's love lives on...
through many generations,
with Gods blessings on each one.
Be thankful for our mothers,
for they love with a higher love...
from the power God has given, and the strength from up above.

"INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES"
"INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES"
Decisions can be hard for a man to make,
But hard decisions make a man.
Good leaders face up to the music,
Even when they dislike the tune.
Wiser people make more opportunities,
Than they find.
Its not the load that breaks us down,
Its the way we carry it.
In middle of every difficulty,
There is an island of opportunity.
Tough time do not lasts,
But, tough people do.
The more enthusiastic one is about 'Life',
The more joy one will find in it.
We should never be afraid of our tears,
Because they simply soften our hearts, wash our eyes and clean our VISION.
- Vinay Chaudhary (‘A)

BE AN OPTIMIST
It gives us strength,
It gives us courage,
when we strive hard,
to make things better,
It demands less energy,
to do more work,
when we have the positive,
views in our efforts.
Try to join things,
In case of breaks,
It can't be BEST,
but can be at least GREAT.
Because .
Every fall is followed by the rise,
as a seed falls for new LIFE,
to learn every moment
and after every twist,
Is what is called to be an
"OPTIMIST"
