YES - the name in itself so optimistic.
Young energetic society a NGO which i was acquainted with few days back through one of its members who happens to be my old buddy. I joined it officially today i.e. 22nd december 2009 which is also the foundation day of YES. It has completed its three successful years today, to me its an honour to join this organization on such an aupicious day.
I would not really do a justice by calling it a NGO , cuz according to me its more of a civil society organization , might sound synonymous but i feel its more appropriate to call it by the latter name.
YES is a bunch of young energetic people who look up to their dream which is not something superficial, this dream is not to earn money or fame but yet some name. Name not in the literal sense but appreciation from one and all . As per my understanding goes , pardon me if i make a mistake , Their projects include child education , youth upliftment , adult awareness, awakening of youth , providing vocational training to the backward sections of society and a lot more . They have worked days and night in and out like one unit to reach where they are today. I see great zeal, an unending hope and a fight till i die spirit in each one of the members ive known so far. The president Sauvik is in himself 'one man army' . This guy had the guts to dream of such a project with widest vision possible. To me he is a visionary . These guys are easy as pie , dressed clean, lucid language , no show off and not at all intricate.
"Keep your dreams alive, understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hardwork, determination and dedication. Remember all things are possible for those who believe" says Gail Dever
If i look at work done by YES till now, and according to what Gail says- i must applaud and accept that YES lacks nothing. but on the other hand there is always a scope for improvement. YES is still presumed to be in its birth stage and has to accomplish a lot. Each member of YES has an open mind leaving a chance for someone to drop a worthwhile thoght in it. Each head contributes in some manner as the famous quote even says "each drop adds to the ocean" by unknown.
i have joined YES with the same spirit and wish to contribute as much as i can in any form whatsoever. I am glad that i will get to work with such wonderful people , in which each second il be learning something new, which already started today. my heart is filled with joy and my head full with creative ideas which just needs a vent out. I am yet to explore the different domians of YES but i am sure i'll be assisted and guided by the new and existing members.
i take immense pleasure in writing these few words in praise of you all. Special consideration to Sauvik(the president), Abhinav Lal( my friend who introduced me to YES) , Neeraj(who let me touch and learn how to operate his expensive DSLR , which was one of my little dreams) , Ankit (whom am expecting i'll be writing under in near future) and Shamael ( whom i can relate to most after hearing and seeing pictures of her - 'one of the pillars of YES and multi tasking woman').
i would like to end on a hopeful note by just quoting a few lines from the author Oscar Wilde who says "we are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars" and "what seems to us as bitter trials are often blessing in disguise".
so with a motive to work hard and contribute as much as possible, i join YES.
MAY ALL DREAMS COME TRUE..... :)
