Mitti Ke Rang - at 'Gharate - NGO for street children - Hadapsar'

It is certainly well said that “The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.” And the same ecstasy was felt when we visited the “Gharte - NGO for street children -Hadapsar”.

We were touched by the extremely cheerful, generous and kind nature of the children.

- We played games with them.

- Taught CAPTAIN HAT's story and helped to make it. This I learn from Mr. Arvind Gupta's video on you tube.
This famous CAPTAIN'S HAT STORY is told while folding a newspaper. Fold a double newspaper and make several caps -- Umbrella cap, Fireman's cap, Shikari cap and a Policeman's cap. In the end you make a Ship. Unfortunately, the ship gets caught in a fierce storm. Huge waves hit the ship and knock it down. Finally the ship breaks into pieces and sinks. And all that Captain is left with is a LIFE JACKET.

- We attained their evening prayer’ It was really pleasant to hear ‘Shubham karoti’ ( शुभंकरोती), Gayatri mantrs,(गायत्री मंत्र), Om Mantra.

- Then we distributed chocolates to them.

The children were really lovely and it was so hard to leave their beautiful smiling faces. 

One of our friend (Sagar) has a very heart touching experience when a girl called Anita came to him and asked him ‘Will you come to meet me daily ‘ (दादा, तुम्ही रोज येणार का मला भेटायला?’), he replied ‘Yes’ (‘हो’), then she asked ‘Promise me’ by putting her palm head. He was speechless !

So to bring smile on children face as you have to just spent time with them, play with them; they really make you feel special.

Smile on child face....

Saturday (22nd March, 2014) I went with my friend & his group for distribution of old/used cloths to needy person at Baba Jan Chowk, Camp and Pune Station.

At Baba Jan chowk, near dargah one litte girl was with her mother saw soft toys in one of our bag and asked for it so we gave her.

An innocent child that has absolutely nothing in this world, besides his body, mind, soul and... shadow, and still has one of the most sweet but yet wondering captivating genuine smiles in the world!

This little kid's smile made my day, I was wondering how a throw away toy made her a so happy , and I was seeing only her eyes and small face with true emotions!

She made me unleash and rediscover rejuvenated inner feelings, a huge relief and amazingly, made me smile in return!

So, I couldn't resist to such unspoiled purity and had to take her photo.

This poor child's smile was worth a thousand photos and no word to be said!
