Making a Difference



Ever tried a frappe at barista, grilled sandwitch at oven fresh , maybe a smoked chicken sandwitch at subway...... or ever noticed the not so lucky urchins u see around these places.wat they eat, where do they sleep or for that matter how do they ever make a living??
The true essence of life does not lie in flaunting the biggest cars or hanging out in the elitest of restaurents... but much beyond that. As priviledged human beings, its our moral responsibility to help the lesser mortals. Mother Teresa once said... we ourselves feel that wat we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But if that drop was not in the ocean, I think the ocean would be less because of that missing drop. I do not agree with the big way of doing things...
each one of us possesses the power to change the lives of these under priviledged souls around us . with this very thought of makin a difference WE the youth of chd have volunteered help the children residing in the slums of sec 25, chd. The WE VoLUNTEER group accomplished its first mission in Pustak school sec 25 chd. nearly fifteen of us visited this school and interacted with the children there aged between three to fifteen. the yonger ones where taught painting and hat making which they enjoyed thoroughly. While the older ones drew their dreams on paper and the best ones where awarded!
We were touched by the love and affection they showed towards us and this very love will keep us comin back to them again n again. Well the next event is scheduled for the 26th of january...

Coming back to life

When you least expect it...life slaps you with a challange to test your courage,will and strength to change , adapt,accept,give in or just give up..to the situation...No one is a born winner...we win some and lose many battles in life....n i too lost one such battle in my life..cat results are out...to my shock n dismay i didn't make it...To make it even worse i ws awarded a negative in english!!!!!!!!!!

Certain things in life r just too hard to believe especially when i was certain in makin it into r nations biggies"!

Without makin it sound rhetoric it has made me a near nervous wreck. When things r so near...everythings so right....preperations...paper...when ur almost there....its ALL GONE !
Being back stabbed in the hands of destiny...ironical huh!
Pretty lame on my part to say...that's life! because if it is its just too unfair!
But then, got a focus on the 2 existances of present and future and not be caught up in the ashes of my dreams!...I'm trying to start anew...initiate a new struggloe and to fight again...Surviving the vagaries of life..its hardships and difficulties...stormy ups and downs is what produces a person of strong character...This night i know is too dark and long, but then i'll wait for that beautiful morning that'll bring back my lost smile....until then i'll fight! and fight again!
Because there aint no mountain high enuf..aint no valley low...

It's a new beginning from the end ...

AD-SUMMUM RESURAM ( To the highest point i'll rise)

P.S.- Anybody willing to tute me for english ;) ???!!!!
