Dear Diary
Sri Bal Narayan 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 Sri Bal Narayan is going to visit our school. She told us about the social work that he is doing and we were very impressed.
Today 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 all the students stood in a line on both sides of the pathway leading to the lecture hall. There was pin drop silence.
I went ahead with the Principal and some teachers welcomed Sri Bal Narayan ji. He is a tall man and has a great personality. His face radiates compassion and kindness. I was very impressed by his personality.
I went to the stage and said a few words of gratitude and requested him to speak to us. 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 neighbourhoods and serve the society in small possible ways.
