Step Forward

Taron ko chhune ki kashish, wakt ko bandhane ka hausla…
Har kadam me ek naya sahas, har aawaz me ek nayi udaan…

This is what I felt, when I first entered a Teach India Classroom. As such you cannot call it a classROOM as it was an open terrace of municipal quarters, where there resident kids had gathered to learn something new from their new teacher. But, I will call it a classroom coz that is what they do call it. As that gives them the feeling that they are gonna learn something new, we the teachers will help them to be the better citizens of nation, will help them to grow being rich, famous and to accomplish their goals.
You have to be with them to feel their energy….chirping like birds, hopping here and there like rabbits.. so cute..... and determination to do something and everything they could lay their hands on. Ready to learn new lessons, ready to share new ideas… full of queries…. and that gives the feeling… of life….

These are the moments which make you feel that your life is worth… that you are able to pay back the society what it has given you. That gives you the feeling that life is more than going to office, making money, gobbling up food, and watching TV in the name of entertainment… Rather life is more about working with selflessness, to contribute to build your nation by investing just some hours of your life. We always keep on saying what government has done for country…. but actually have we anyways asked ourselves what we are doing for our nation? We always complain of having increase in crime… but had we took a little concern to give food to that hungry boy who was just about to crash from bike in the morning… no, we never…we were in hurry to meet an important client who is about to give us a big order. Then, how can we think of little boy who had been hungry since 2 days, looking for a single loaf of bread… to be honest. Then, we try to teach that boy the lesson of honesty. We can never achieve anything out of this… Instead of that if each one of us take responsibility of at least a single child, we would be able to give ourselves a much better future… then we don’t have to wait for some government body to come and solve our problems. Reason; we would have invested in the saplings which will be trees to render the prosperity and lay a path of growth for our nation. The nation is built on strong shoulders…. And let us take step forward to give those shoulders to our nation.
Nobody from our generation wants to get into those muddy waters of violence in the name of caste…religion… color.. We all understand that its only the wellness of a being which counts. So, let us start the drive to bring that wellness in our nation. How long are we going to look upon any other country to give us good job opportunities, let us make them here itself.
I know you might be feeling that I am really day dreaming… but how can I fulfill it until I dream of it. I dream of clean roads, I dream of seeing every child in school and dream of every body living happily… I am taking my step forward…and there are many who have already taken, and made us what we are today… so let’s take it to next level…

Here’s glimpse of my lovely birds…
