Ahwahan:Its our calling

“Great things happen to great people.”

 The above quote was said in the context of destiny. So if one is doing something good, he will get good outcome for that. So here one question arises whether everything that we do for others are always meant for getting something in back. Is nothing in this world is selfless? You might hear people saying that we did this or we did that. But why they did that? May be the person was noble or self-sacrificing. But he would get something good out of this. Gandhiji, our father of the nation, is known for sacrificing his life, his family for our independence. Was he selfless? When all might think he was, there is another perspective to it. On August 15, when India become independent what Gandhiji saw in people’s faces? It’s the smile that the people of India were missing for centuries. Is not it a great return?

Let’s look at the following poem below whose author lost in time.

You gave on the way a pleasant smile
And thought no more about it.
It cheered a life that had been dark the while
Which might have been wrecked without it.
And so for that smile that was given there,
You'll have a reward sometime-somewhere.

You spoke one day a cheering word, 
And passed to other duties.
 
It cheered a heart; new promise stirred
 
And painted a life with beauties.
 
And so for that word of golden cheer,
 
You'll have a reward sometime-somewhere.

You lent a hand to a fallen one; 
lift in love was given.
 
You saved a soul when hope was gone
 
And helped him on toward heaven.
 
and, so for that help you proffered there,
 
You'll have a reward sometime-somewhere.

The objective behind talking all these things is to let you know something about AHWAHAN. It is the social responsibility cell of the students of CSREM (Centurion school of Rural Enterprise Management).  The basic goal behind starting this campaign is to create awareness among students on social responsibility and to know what they can do for the society. Our seniors led by Gyanda Mohanty were the people who thought of this. Now we are into our second year. So hopefully we will do a lot things to help the people of the surrounding villages of Paralakhemundi.
