I think creating a storybook about Indian sports using the characters from the readings could be really cool. As a kid, I played every sport I could and really loved the competition aspect of it. Sports taught me many lessons about humility, perseverance, and teamwork and I think I could integrate these lessons into my storytelling. My project would be similar "Rama on the Golf Course," except I would try to use a different popular Indian sport and a new main character in every story. I know that cricket is popular in India but I do not know what other sports are played. I would learn a ton and it would be a blast to research.
Idea 2: Indian Music
I was in choir all throughout high school, and I love music and singing. One lesson I learned about music is that it is supposed to bring about feeling. If I wrote a storybook about Indian music, I could tell stories about the impact music had on the lives of the characters I read about this semester. Music has the power to lighten the mood, excite, inspire, and heal emotionally. Based on the personalities of the characters I read about this semester, I can show music accomplishing these things. The storybook Musical Demon Slayers gave me this idea. The characters in this storybook used music instead of physical action to fight evil. This storybook would also allow me to add videos of different style of Indian Music.
Idea 3: Medicine
As someone looking to go into the medical field, it might be super cool to write about medicine. Many ancient Indian medical practices could be incorporated into stories where noble doctors save those who are ill. These doctors, named after characters in the readings, could show incredible perseverance as they treat never before seen illnesses. They would display great problem solving skills. I did not see any previous blogs on the topic of medicine or doctors, but Character Therapy: Healing in Stories was full of stories where the characters found healing.
Idea 4: Siblings
Adventures of the Brothers Fite gave me the idea to create a storybook about the relationships between siblings. The bond between siblings is unlike any other bond. Siblings can come with arguments and annoyances, but at the end of the day love prevails. I grew up with two siblings, my brother, Robert, and my sister, Nicole. I could incorporate my family experiences into stories about siblings in India. Research might be a little harder for this topic as I would be witting stories mostly from experience.
