The Gonds and their painted walls, stories etched in ochre, a language of the earth, a legacy of dreams. The Todas and their gentle herds a symphony of bells, a rhythm of the mountains, a...

Premium Member The Seeds I've Sown
From training teachers, and shaping their craft, To craft programs, and build a path, I've walked beside them, hand in hand, Guiding young minds across this fertile land. As a program officer, a watchful eye, As an implementation guide, soaring high, The echo of laughter in a classroom is bright, The spark of curiosity, ignited by light. A child's mind is a fertile...

It is not the size of your contribution that counts
It is not the size of your contribution that counts in this life, But your willingness to contribute that counts in this life. It is not how hard you try in this life that counts, But the number of times you try in this life that counts. It is not how much others are prepared to give that counts...

My Contribution To Saving the Planet
I gave up my clothes drier, For cleaner air. I started a metal recycling scheme for my local church, So as not to leave them in the lurch. I dig most of my waste food into the garden, And it now looks more like a miniature Eden, I separate my paper and plastics, And only toss waste into bins. I try not to...
