I made my time valuable with it--HH4P

As usual and normal, it was a routine day with same emotions and rigorous running through, uff!! frustrated with the so called stress of IT job , my eyes were going through the news feed on face-book.I got habituated to this or I can say addicted to .....nothing was new for me , same old faces .....some one puts up status--happy for grabbing new job , an other of their new hair style , koii kisi mall ka ..koi kisi movie kaaa..........Now already in such a good and pessimistic mood ,I decided to logout and was about to do so ..when suddenly my eyes could see something related to "Helping Hands" .......Whats this..Ofooo......people are really ( bla..bla...blaa) ...I was furious and opened the page........And what happened is ...I calmed down.I was enthusiastic to know about the page and group of people.I started browsing and could find interesting .



At an age of being conscious about his career, getting handful of salary and good flat , this person started an NGO...I could see his display pic, sitting near a hut and speaking to an old woman.
Well , I was more happy to see that, there was a new volunteer meet the next day. Ohh!! The next day me and my brother rushed to attend it.I could see students similar to me..they were young , studying , but still were giving up a hand of help to them who are in need. NGO running almost without no funds. Seriously I could tell myself , we don't need money or finances to help someone.

Thus a new phase of my life started!! I was making my time worthy.For people working in MNC , Saturday and Sunday  are two boons given by super power.Thanks for putting up these days away from work. I have never taken up any projects there but I tried my best to support the running projects.

My first work their was ..I helped visually disabled students in studying and making them understand what they were learning.I was surprised with the excitement they receive me today.As soon as they hear my voice , they simply say..Akka u came..so nice of you...(as teaching is my passion ....i am giving time for it in more valuable way). I attended blood camp for the first time. I could see how it is used for children suffering from cancer.

Dec 6th was an awesome and memorable day..It was like "Fantastic, mind-blowing and excellent " where students (physically , visually handicapped) come over on a stage and give up their performances. It was moment of bliss, feeling proud to be a volunteer there.They rocked the stage with their hidden talent.

I captured lot many and happy moments, though in a short span.The learning was when you are in this country where people hesitate to give a rupee to a beggar and spend loads of it in doing pooja, and I think you got my point ...I could say give worth to your leisure time, make it valuable.

I would like to brief an example here. I asked one of my friend to be  a scribe for a student. My friend simply said "I am sorry , I cant sit 3 hours a long" ,..... Well I asked !! "How will you sit 3 hours along to watch a film " . Ha ah ..I think you got my point. Finally!! I could say ......................

"Any important change can only take place through an inward journey".
