In the grand narrative of life, heroes come in various shapes and forms. They aren't always the caped crusaders or the knights in shining armour; sometimes, they are right beside us, in the familiar guise of family. For me, that hero is none other than my sister, Dr. Bela Kotwani. She epitomizes the essence of a hero not through grand gestures or extraordinary feats, but through her profound ability to embrace life with unparalleled vigour and joy.
She lives "life queen size," a phrase that encapsulates her fearless approach to life. She doesn't merely exist; she thrives, revelling in every moment with a zest that is truly inspiring. Her mantra is simple: life is meant to be enjoyed, and she does so with unbridled enthusiasm.
One of the most remarkable traits is her unwavering ability to remain stress-free amidst life's tumultuous waves. While others may succumb to the pressures of daily existence, she navigates through with a serene demeanour, as if stress was an alien concept to her. This remarkable resilience is a testament to her inner strength and serves as a guiding light for those around her, including myself.
What sets her apart is her multifaceted nature. She runs a pre-school and day centre where her love for children is palpable in every interaction. Her dedication to nurturing young minds is a testament to her unwavering commitment to education and the well-being of the next generation.
But her talents don't stop there. She is also a national pickleball player, seeded among the top five women players in India. This remarkable achievement speaks volumes about her determination and resilience. At 57, age is merely a number to her, and she proves that with dedication and passion, anything is possible. In addition to her academic and athletic pursuits, she is a master puppeteer, captivating audiences with her enchanting performances. Her puppet shows are legendary in Mumbai, captivating both young and old alike. Through her performances, she ensures that children are not just entertained but also inspired to explore the boundless realms of imagination.
In a world often marred by chaos and uncertainty, she serves as a beacon of hope and positivity. Her resilience, joyous spirit, and boundless love make her not just a hero, but my ultimate shero. She embodies the very essence of what it means to live life to the fullest, and I envy that she is able to do that with such ease. So, here's to my sister, Dr. Bela Kotwani, my shero, whose radiant presence illuminates my life and reminds me that no matter the challenges we face, there's always joy to be found in the journey.
