I feel one of the best decisions I ever made is to go to Happy home. Before going there, I was determined to teach the children with full dedication but then now it looks like I am the one learning from those kids. The peace of mind, that feeling I have when I go there can't really be put into words. I feel as if I am a whole new person when I am with them. The children there adapt to people really well; in just about 3 visits they recognized almost every one of us and actually notice our absence. The fact that my presence and absence both affect the children makes me feel really warm inside. These children are satisfied with whatever they have, this is definitely something that makes me ponder. The grownups including us teens are never satisfied with the things we have and always want something else and something more. When I think about it, we have a lot more luxurious life compared to them but besides that we don't have those glistering and heart-warming smiles they have; we lack that satisfaction. I remember this one time when a little girl of class UKG came and hugged my legs (she was so small that she could only reach my legs), I have never felt something so strong in my life. This was one of the sweetest things that has ever happened to me, that moment was so pure, so fragile, so heavenly. Being here in happy home has changed a lot of my perceptions& traits and made me a better person. The fact that these changes are from my initiative and experience increases the worth of it to me. One of the remarkable things we have done is collected money through Bake and Sell and bought some stationery products for the kids. Those smiles and grateful looks made us feel as if we reached the peak of the Everest. Happy Home is the key to my satisfaction and genuine smile.
