Tuesday,31st May2011, A day we will always remember.
During the wonderful three day teenage shibir, Lata Aaji said that, she and Anil Ajoba were to go to Modi Resort for some rest. And that if possible anybody from shibir can join them there. It gives me immense pleasure to say that Milind and I could make it possible on one of the days. I am sure Khaches, and Om Vaknalli who could make it, also share the same feelings.
It was a peaceful day which started at 9 am and lasted till 10.30 pm. Apart from a break of about one hour, Lata Aaji and Anil ajoba shared wonderful memories of their family and friends for the whole day. Their interesting episodes with their great friends and eminent personalities like Pu La, Sunitabai, Mangesh Padgaokar, Borkar, Vasant Bapat, Vinda Karandikar, and Baba Amte and also cricketers like Madhav Apte and Vasu Paranjape, and doctors like Dr.Phadke and Dr.Shrikhande,Advocate Mohan Korde kept us captivated.
The variety of their friends, the relations they shared with the all of them, and people at large, the priority they gave to nurture their relationships, the involvement of Gargee and Adwait in everything that they did, their compassion, never ceases to amaze me.
Needless to say, there were sessions to take a review of shibir. One thing that came up was the lack of compassion and commitment on our part which we need to improve upon.
As an exercise for the next meeting on Sunday 12th June at 3pm, parents are expected to talk to the children about the last teen age shibir and write down what all happened during the shibir.
We really missed those of you who were not present at Modi Resort. I am sure there will be many more such occasions but do try and give these occasions a priority.
