We often forget how fortunate we are and how thankful we should be for everything we have and also for certain things we don’t have.
Patriotism drives a lot of things I do.
I also feel deeply for the young children on our streets, who do not have Roti-Kapda-Makaan and basic education.
Forever, I have felt responsible to do something for them and forever, I’ve been running away from it.
I have always strongly felt that guaranteeing education for children in our country will bring us one step closer to improving conditions of living and eventually make India one of the most powerful nations in the world.
Today, I took one lil step towards that responsibilty. And I feel so much better already. So very much better, that its made me blog again (all the love my blog has received from tweeple has also helped greatly).
From tomorrow, 17th of November, 2009 , I start classes for poor children and young women in the area, who live on the streets and work in houses in the locality for a living. English and Math. 2 hours a day, 2 days a week.
This is a part of something much bigger that I am working on at the moment and planning to implement soon(will keep you updated).And I know If all I do is plan, I wont get any where. So I start here.Baby steps
I know my classes aren’t going to change the world overnight, but its my little drop in the Ocean, and I believe, every drop counts.
