The NGO Diary: Miracles Happen!

When you wish for something it most likely comes true - in forms small or big. You can be assured that there is a real connect with that one person out there. I had only wished to work with my present organisation while working at 'the Titanic' (My previous organisation - that's what I call it now). No matter how bad the experiences might have been, I still appreciate the Titanic for the opportunities given!

Talking about Miracles - I experience many as I live each day. Miracles just happen without giving a hint.At the verge of calling it quits since the day I joined, this feeling had overpowered a belief of taking experiences that were only good not bad. Well, as a matter of fact, there was nothing bad!

 The Titanic has people joining in as soon as they leave and it goes on and on and on..... I was ridiculed to my gut during an encounter I had with a senior at work on the first day. While it is normal to be welcomed in a new organization with a great hint of positivity and motivation. You want to be the least surprised with first day shocks. Now that I recall all the instances it only gives me a good loud burst of laughter and great memories of experiences taken. 

I say 'miracles happen' - my resignation at the Titanic was a miracle in itself that brought me out of that sinking feeling. The next moment my fellowship application at a U.S. top notch organisation had hit the block. Next miracle - I did fairly well in the selection rounds came into the Finalist category. 

And it continues.....

There is so much happening around us that we forget counting those MIRACLES. The smallest one that ever happened is sure to turn into a big one someday!

My Inspiration - I

This week i attended two seminars-cum-workshops sponsored by MAAC(Maya Academy of Advanced Cinematics), TASI, NID.

My Inspiration - I, is Mr. Ishu Patel and his work, who has been an Oscar nominee twice and has been working on his skills and knowledge base since his young days. His hard work and creativity is par excellence...he joined the National Film Board of Canada in 1970.

For the next 50 minutes...i was in the haven of creativity and the profundity of art.
I saw 'Bead Game', 'Divine fate', 'Top Priority', 'AfterLife', 'How Death Came to Earth'. It never made me feel that such colorful drawings and objects could make brilliant short animated films like these! He is right when he says 'You young people...eat food and never chew it!' Thats so true...

My next blog is My Inspiration - II...till then try chewing food for a change! ;-)
