Your Life - Is Your Dream

                                                    Lessons once learnt will live forever‘

Returning to Divyadaan is for me a return to the early lessons as a Salesian at Divyadaan, my first year of studying philosophy.

People change yet we remain – my batchmates who accompanied me, lived with me, helped me and saw me grow have moved on just like me in their own fields of learning.
For me a dream would realistically means understanding the words of the famous philosopher Frederich Nietzsche, ―He who has a why to live can live almost anyhow. The WHY of Nietzsche is for me the meaning of dreams.

Dreams are the reason for my reality. I very often retro-spect about my life and how people, situations and times have come to fall in place like a puzzle finding its piece in the larger sphere of life. It once was a dream for me to be a Salesian. It was a dream to be like a certain young boy Johnny Bosco from Becchi running around the streets inspiring young and old alike with his acrobatic and natural talent. He taught me by creating dreams for his boys and making them a reality. It was a dream for me to answer a call that so many before me received in million different ways from the man who first showed us the way to dream.

As I live my dreams everyday, realizing them step by step, fulfilling my daily tasks and making real little by little every bit of it, I thank God for all the lessons he has granted me in the few years of life he has given me.
I am a sojourner… returning to Divyadaan for me is returning to where I began realizing my dreams and preparing myself to fulfill them. Signing off for now for there is still a lot of dreaming work to be done.
I end by wishing you dreams..dreams and more dream for you and your families!
