u live once …should live tons…
Nothing is eternal, there’s always a transition maybe gradual, but there is. Everything in this world changes gradually even the smallest instance of life changes in due time. Change is always bound to happen, if not for a positive aspect, probably for a negative but no emotions, no living, no moments, no relation can inhibit this. It’s always in our hands to extract something from this changing time maybe good or bad that is left for the mind to decide and we have to be strong enough to have focus and passion and that’s what I have been doing. Extracting as much as I can from this changing time, incessant life, by doing whole lots of things as compared to 3 - 4 years back. Well so on social volunteering front I have just recently joined a chapter of Asha in Stamford. Asha Stamford main focus is at providing education to poor children in some tribal dominated districts in Assam. I used to do some social volunteering with Asha and Pratham in Mumbai also, hence decided until I am here possibly till august I would volunteer in publicity division of Asha for at least 3-4 hours a week. Asha’s this month project is to show a series of three good Hindi movies in a theater during Saturday’s and the funds from it would go for charity. So currently I am running here and there convincing all desi’s, Americans, even clients to attend at least one for this good cause. Posting fliers/emails in all malls, hotels, companies and Indian grain stores. Well what I have found is its more hard to convince an Indian in US to see an Hindi movie … man as if they were born americans… junk...or else they probably know how Hindi movies are …lol…anyways lets see how it goes on. Rest on my work front my projects are going well, we just released phase 1 and results were good and even got appreciated. Rest during weekends I go for boating, tennis, visit some exotic places and view picturesque nature, which is one of my passions, it just gives me an amazing feeling. Rest my studies are also going well and I think I would probably be able to take a date near august. So currently I am extracting lots from my life and I think that’s the perfect way to live, extracting as much from this passing time as one can, making one’s life complete and contented and that’s what is important at the end of the day. My brother quotes “never be in your comfort zone…always thrive for something…cause u live once …should live tons…” and I truly admire this.

Nanhi kali is a special project of the K.C. Mahindra Education Trust, aimed at providing primary education to the underprivileged girl child in India. I think no matter how much we earn a little bit should go towards helping needful.
