Colors just magnetize you and when it’s something corporeal,
they really fill in them the soul they need. Something like this caught my eyes
few days back. All those handmade papers,quilling papers, glitters, glues just stirred
in more glucose and collaged themselves behind my eyeballs in all my lazy
hours. And that’s when I made some liberal cards to fulfill that void that my
retrospective imagination had created in me.
While this could seal up some space, there was still something annulled. When given a thought again, and again, and again. It just then struck me. It was the value. Yes! It’s the value that it added. The reason they were made for ,to be happy about. Was passion alone worth the grounds? I felt it must be much more than it. Something that would make me feel happily happy. So thought of making money out of the artefacts.But is that it?. How will the money add value? Cause this is the money created out of so much passion and love .How can I differentiate this from my salary?
Fighting against all qualms, came out an idea. Charity!!! With the added inspiration and modest support of my friend Shahina, a very humble girl who supports people in education and few others we arranged to serve food for RVM foundation at their center for destitutes.
Here is where I saw something I had never thought of. Most of the people mentally challenged, and many old aged to the extent that they were counting their days.We went to each of them to distribute sweets and then spoke to them.Everyone is lost in their already lost world. Few came near to give a hug. I hindered a little though but gave.Felt very happy. With all my might I tried to smile and talk to them happily as if nothing is wrong with them.Each one reacted well.Few came by smiled,held my hands ,asked me to come often…..A nobel experience really!!
Once we left, still their voices lingered in my ear. Is this world so much in short of love? How much of trauma could they have gone through their lives.Why are these still happening after so much of advancement in medical science? Of course!! May be with advancement in life we are forgetting and declining few very important things like love,affection,mutual help. :\
