Vacation for a cause - Bala Bharati Siksha Samiti Summer Camp 2




Ok, so it was a 15 day camp and my son, myself and my friend had to get from Chennai to Hyderabad. last minute didnt get tickets .. so my friend said we are going to travel sleeper class. I said ok, its been 8 yrs since I have traveled sleeper class, so now's the time to renew my memories. The wonderful thing about this and about everything else in life is - PERSPECTIVE.

I was worried.. how would my son cope.. we've always traveled in A/C blah.. blah .. I guess in reality I was more worried about me coping. My son had a blast on the train.. he didn;t know anything different and that was a lesson learnt for me.

As we reached the camp, I awoke to the sight of greenery, mangrove trees, beauty, nature as we know it. I was thrilled. Our acharya introduced us to the parents in such superfluous words .. I thought here go my chances of even thinking about returning back. Now I have to stay and complete the entire 15 day camp !!
