उत्तर

It was indeed a challenge when I first learnt to ride a bicycle. I remember my father accompanying me each day to the playground; along with the new bicycle that he had gifted me. I would fall so often, and injure myself. I felt sure I would never be able to ride like my elder sister. I developed the fear of being unable to balance myself on the bicycle. But my father and sister didn’t give up on me. They would pick me up each time I fell and tell me to ride again. With their help, I overcame my fear and learnt how to ride a bicycle. I got my confidence back and I dared to ride the bicycle on the road. Encouragement and support certainly go a long way in mastering any skill in life.
