Service The Community

          In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it's easy to overlook the invaluable treasures that lie within the hearts and stories of the elderly. This blog chronicles my weekly visits to an old age home, where I have discovered a reservoir of wisdom, resilience, and untold tales. Join me on this emotional and enlightening journey as we explore the lives of those who have weathered the storms of time.           Today I went there to be a part of their prayer service, the elderies sit regularly for their pyayer sessions and I wanted to join with them. It was a humble experince for me also. Later, we interactered for about 10 -15 minutes more, as it was time for their lunch, so we had to leave early. But small and weekly visits like these made my day and their day beautiful.  HOW DELICIOUS IS THE LUNCH THE TALK AND THE FOOD THE WHOLESOME FACES         THE NEVER ENDING STORIES     ...

As we bid farewell to the old year and welcome the new, it's heartening to witness communities coming together to celebrate inclusivity and joy. One such remarkable event that took place on the occasion of the New Year was a fair dedicated to special needs children including many small kids who are born deaf and dumb, some were even blind by birth. This heart-warming celebration aimed to create an environment where every child, regardless of their abilities, could revel in the spirit of the season.  The fair was a testament to the power of inclusivity, as my NGO 'The Care Takers Society' and me as a leading activist, worked tirelessly to ensure that every child felt welcome and valued.

To entertain everybody we planned out many games and activities. We set up a small shooting range for the kids to win pr...

          In the month of May, during my summer vacation, I went to Ledo, in the state of Assam, India. Ledo is the north east part of India, in the upper part of Assam near the border of Arunachal Pradesh. It is a very extreme and remote place where necessary amenities are difficult to find.
