Give them all

Giving, though, in idea has a very powerful message of growing. It does hurt a person when it comes to do it in act, especially if a person is not enjoying a good social status. This calls for a realization of the essence of Giving. Giving simply means being detached from material goods and being attached to the love experienced form people and God. Therefore, your Giving away of something (money, food, and shelter) must cause you to be more loving. Concomitantly, giving need not necessarily be in ‘material’ but emotionally and spiritually. Giving has a broader horizon then usually conceived. As a result, it is in giving that we grow in love for each other and with God.

U, Me and Don Bosco

The youth of today are engaged in all walks of life and are vacillating from one work to another, finding no fulfillment in one. A Majority of this age group implies a good future of the nation. Largely, because they are full of energy and are alive with a young spirit, ready to do something new. At the same time, this age group also faces a lot of challenges, exploitation and more especially are contracted with various vices. Though their material need is being attended, their spiritual need is still unnoticed. These youth of today form the “U” In Turin, when the need arose to eradicate the problems of youth who were ending up in prison, God sent Don Bosco to take care of these youth. Likewise to tackle the problems of today’s youth, namely, the danger of being misguided and falling into bad company, God is continuously sending his help. We (sons of Don Bosco) the servants of the young are a part of this divine help given to the youth of today. We form the “Me”. Without us knowi...

My Vision of a Human Person

We, human beings, possess a gift given to us by God i.e. to be human. A Human Person must be able to understand d the other and so he/she will be understand the other and so he/she will be understood or recognized in return. One must be willing to share his/her time, resources and talents with those in need of it. This needs to overflow from one’s compassionate heart. A Human Person needs to  respect the other as his/her equal. Though this vision seems to be good in imagination, when it comes to living it, by oneself, it is a challenge. If one is caught in such difficult situation, don’t lose hope, there is a way out of it. A Human Person needs to learn the good values being lived by those people in his/her immediate surrounding. Hence, one needs to be attentive to these role models, appreciate them for the same and make an attempt to live these good values in the best way possible. A Human Person must have the heart to love oneself and the other. This love needs to be genuine....

Be different

Why be different? Though all of humanity has a common origin, each human being is unique and different. From birth, we are gifted with the power of thinking and acting differently. As we grow, we depend on and imitate the character of the ones around us (especially parents). It is good at the early stages of life, in order to imbibe the fundamentals of life (with regards to what is right and wrong). Further, as we mature, we need to decide and form our own identity. If we fail to do so, we might find ourselves nowhere. Imitating the others will not help us in the long run. We might only become a clone of the other. Think and act differently and so we need to make our identity wherever we go and wherever we are. Though we are thinking and acting differently our fundamentals of life must always be the same. A clear sign of people thinking differently is the emergence of new gadgets and technology everyday. All the inventors, discoverers and leaders of past, thought differently an...
