Seven weeks and still craving more
Its been seven weeks since I have joined the Tackle caravan and so much has changed since the first day I came to Nellurpuram.We have learnt how to bond with the kids,in fact our equation with the children has changed. We have grown as a team,the whole Tackle crew has become so close, and most importantly we ourselves have grown as a person mentally and emotionally.Its interesting how children can shape our personality.Its astonishing how I have changed from a restless person to someone who is more calm than usual. Just three hours spent with these kids in a week has transformed us.
Even after a tiring day in college,I find myself gravitating towards Nellurpuram just to spend time with these kids.Its like every Saturday the kids have a new story to tell. The kids eagerly wait for us to come.They have even learnt our names. Just to hear them say, “Hi akka” makes your day. They are always excited and enthusiastic about everything we have in store for them.
