It was 9 o' clock in the morning we (all the children) were remarkably waiting for Medha Patkar mam in the burning sun.All had successfully overcomed their "Monday morning blues" and were discussing about her only.As we all know that Medha Patkar is an Indian social activist working on various crucial political and economical issues raised by Adivasis,Dalits,farmers, labourers and women facing injustice.She is the also the founder of 31 years old people's movement in Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Gujarat.
Finally after 15 mins everyone's urge to see her was successfully fulfilled when she entered our school in her simple Maruti car.She was welcomed by tika and garlands.Our principal was there to receive her.She had an immensely pleasant grin on her face that enlightened her personality.
A short program was prepared for welcoming her in our school.The program was hosted by head girl and head boy : Shreya and Manik.After that a dance performance by junior classes and a small skit was prepared.She was extremely glad to enjoy our performance.
Now came the most awaited moment that was speech by Medha mam herself.She addressed the students in a very peculiar way that inspired everyone.She also gave us many guidelines and inspired us by her words.Medha mam even enlightened us by describing her whole journey of how she became a social worker.The programme ended by a short prayer service and vote of thanks by our principal.
Sri Bal Mukund is a well known social worker. His Samaj Seva Niketan is a well known social organization which renders a lot of service to society. He is an avid speaker and inspires people with his talks. On Wednesday our teacher told us that the next day Sri Bal Mukund was going to visit our school. She told us about the social work that he was doing and we were very impressed.
It was a very special day for all of us. We were all very excited. Most of us reached school an hour before the usual time. Everywhere students were seen talking excitedly about his visit. It was 9 am and we all stood in a line on both sides of the pathway leading to the lecture hall. There was pin drop silence.
The Principal and some teachers went ahead and welcomed Sri Bal Mukund ji. He is a tall man and has a great personality. His face radiates compassion and kindness. We were impressed after seeing him.
When he started speaking, we became so engrossed in his speech that we did not realize that more than an hour had passed and it was time for him to go. Even after he left we sat quietly and were in deep thought.
It was only after the bell rang for break that we came back to normal. We started discussing about the wonderful things he had told us. We were inspired by the ideals of simple living and high thinking. We decided to help the poor children in our neighborhoods and serve the society in small possible ways.
