This Sunday we are going to be visiting our friends
at the Utthan Taleem Kendra. Utthan works with the mentally challenged
children whose conditions range from Down’s Syndrome to Autism to
various Learning disabilities.
Working with these children can be an absolutely incredible experience.
One of the things that we have learnt from them is just how illogical
and beautiful things can be. These kids may suffer from various mental
disabilities, but at the same time their innocence and unconditional love
can help one feel an amazing lightness and simplicity towards life. Many
of them seem to live so much from their heart. Beware! Their positivity
and joy is truly contagious :-)
This Sunday, we will be helping them create paintings, which will
be exhibited and sold to raise money. It would be wonderful to share this
amazing time together.
