Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass ...
Its about learning to dance in the rain!!!
There are many things in life that will catch your eye
but only a few will catch your heart... Pursue those

This is my small effort to make you smile for a while...

My Visit to an Orphanage

Hi
I wish to share a moment here with you all which left me in tears...
It was my usual activity on a Sunday morning to visit an orphanage from 9-12:30, but due to some personal reasons I couldn't make it from past 6 months thought it left me sad, I couldn't make it in this period.
One Sunday suddenly I realised its very important for me to get back to those kids who were so close to me...
I woke up early, packed some sweets and bought some books for them and left to meet them.
As my vehicle stopped there, Raghu my friend a kid aged 6 was the first person to come running to me and hug me saying where were u all these days... for this one question I had no answer but to say sorry to him.
he took me into ashram and called all his friends I knew many of them there, though I had forgot their names they were just shouting as 'Ramyakkaaaaa' i felt so bad for staying away from them...
They all discussed different stories, about their school, their yearly once vacation all about them self, they danced the same dance which I had choreographed for them days back :).

Suddenly Basava another kid of 7 jumped near me and said 'Ramyakka do you know their is a new member in our group' This one thing always is a sad news to me as their is one more kid with no one to care for again... So with a fake smile told him to introduce that member to me...

with widest smile he took my hands and ran towards back of the Ashram, I was surprised as why would one admit some new entrant their. Then for my surprise, Basava opened a small kennel and told 'Ramyakka do you remember Lachi the dog, it died after giving birth to this puppy Lakshman, So I am taking care of this...'

Probably this one incident I can never forget in my life, Friends I always say this to everyone I meet, people like us don't know the value of love, care, touch and feelings as we get it abundantly so please see the value of it in the eyes of those who are deprived of it...
