Welcome to Sharon’s Read and Reflect — a cozy corner for curious minds and wandering thoughts! ✨ I’m Sharon Clara Fernandes, someone who believes reading adds wings to the mind and writing gives it a voice. 📚 Here, I pour my thoughts, a dash of humor, and a sprinkle of reflection into every piece I write.

If you walk into any school on Children’s Day, you’ll find a familiar scene: kids buzzing like happy honeybees, teachers trying to match their energy (and failing adorably), and someone always asking, “Ma’am, can we dance NOW?”But behind the chocolates, cultural shows, and selfie marathons lies a deeper purpose — one we adults sometimes forget...
