10th oct'15 was one of the most awesomes days that has ever occurred to me. This was Saturday which is almost thought as a chill pill day by Indians. School children abhor moving to school this day as next is going to be a fun day-Sunday. College youths find this as an apt day to go for GT. Either to watch a new released movie or urge to go to an adventorus trip. Be it choki dhani, patal paani, vijay chat ki chole tikki and many many more. But this time none of the above mentioned reason made me happy. Neither the movie nor the odi tickets. The reason because of which I kept smiling the whole day was a social cause. Our visit to orphanage. We all were supposed to report at 11:30am. I only knew the President of AnantAman social welfare society Mr Hemant gupta sir. We all headed towards a common destination of which maximum people were aware-Annapurna temple. Gradually people started gathering. Some youths were from Medicaps and some were from Vaishnav college. I do not remember all names but yes some remarkable were Apurva, Poonam, Suchi, Abhishek, Aditya and many more. Well presence of every guy made event successful and more remarkable. Well what I really liked in the group was their enthusiasm level. Now finally after all gatherings we reached orphanage. As soon as we entered they greeted us with Jai Shree Krishna. And at that point I realised how wonderful are our Indian values. We took intro of all the kids. Their strength was approx 25. Actually we went with a special moto of celebrating birthday of one of our group member's colleague Divya as well as two children from the orphanage itself: Manish & Ajay. But before cake cutting ceremony we had various games so that they could open up with us and enjoy to their fullest. After intro we had fun including dances, songs, poetries and lots of stories cited by various sweet voices. I was really shocked but actually glad to see their updation regarding songs, movies and several dance styles. It was an awe moments. It was really nice the way we young bloods mingled with our future young bloods, kids. Then obvio it was time for the most trendy thing. Yeah snaps. The other moment we really felt touched was when all kids unitedly recited prayer before lunch and cake ceremony. They looked so determined and ambitious while playing. It truely created a positive aura. It reminded me a flashback of my school days. After a short span we served lunch which comprised of almost every child's favorite. Yes it was yummy pav -bhaji. All of them ate it in very organised and systematic manner. I could glance satisfaction level on each and every face . Well what could be better than this. Apart from all the glitz and glamour of this world they were destined to find happiness even in the cheapest of things. Well this is what exactly we need to learn from them. Even in the toughest phases of life they do not seem to struggle. They are enjoying and living to their fullest. At times kids teach us things which even elder fail to teach. Being natural and simplicity is one of the biggest lessons I have learnt. Not only me but we all need to learn from it. At last, although we were not willing to move but as time didn't permitted us we had to make a move. We concluded our event with some moral teachings that every children should be aware of. More than them we were thankful to kids for making our day extremely unique and our event exclusive as well successful.
