Its time to Give back to society

I have always believed that things will fall in place if we want to, and for that we require patience and persistence. Society today has changed into competition zone and every day we feel like running the race, and 1 fine day v feel v have lost many occasions of giving back. Giving back to Family, Culture, Society, Nation and the World. And I am fortunate and many like me are, who understood this sooner and are working for well being on the society

I remember the words that JRD Tata said " When you are successful,you must give back to society. Society has given so much, we must reciprocate", and I add "and the best way is to educate". Education does not need only books, its about giving ideas, thoughts, visions, innovations etc. Education should not be hard, it has to joyful and engaging. Newton would never had been successful had he spent reading only books, and not innovating something, remember he was a drop out!!!!!

All I wanted was an opportunity and flexibility to work with students and I found Bhumi 3 months back. It is matter of pride to be part of the Team who are working for a wonderful future of students. Its not only a good learning for them but a important learning for me too. The volunteers are too good and I see a sense of achievement in each of their eyes. I really dunno if I can spend another year in this organisation but I ll try to make good use of the opportunity I have taken this year. I ll try to be patient and persistent and lets hope we will help these kids achieving greater heights.
