A MIND-OPENING EXPERIENCE IN CUBBON PARK

I dont know where to start... it was an excellent, mind-opening experience for me. Never have I seen so many children who, without any convenience, luxuries and even a proper roof over their heads smile a genuine smile, and fill your heart with happiness too. A few days back, when I spoke to Ms. Tracy, she told me about this performance performed by orphans or all ages. It was a joyful experience. More than their performances, the fact that even though they go through a lot of hardships in their lives, they still smile at you, making you a happier person. The saying "smile and the whole world smiles with you" holds true with these children. We have everything in life, yet we crave for more. They have nothing to look forward to, yet they are so contended. Is there no end to this materialistic war we fight in everyday? All we have time for is think of all that we want. We hardly ever think about how fortunate we are to have a roof over our heads, nice warm clothing and good food. Is'nt it time we think of all that and help someone who is really in need rather than buying things we already have for ourselves? Just a thought. Here are some pictures from the event.
