My dear
Nice to connect with you again with the latest news from the front lines here.
Just got back last Thursday from yet another SSL rural camp.
Lovely place (a fifty acre farm in Mahad – chillies/bananas/papayas/mangoes and strawberry saplings/cows/goats…)
Lovely work (weeding chilli fields/clearing grass/digging ten pits for algae beds) – 7 hours a day.
Very comfortable living conditions… lots of water.
Excellent yummy food (rice/dhal/vegetable/papad/pickle).
An awesome group of students (38 of them).
Because of my Senior citizen status and otherwise limitations, I was not allowed to strain myself and work … quite a challenge to my uncontrollable urge to show-off! I agonised watching them do things differently and made my gentle “suggestions” as and when I could. They smiled and learnt and went back to doing things differently.
So I too smiled, generally rested and pottered around the fringes pretending I was enthusiastically occupied in matters of importance.
And I drank a lot of water… good for kidney stones, they say.
Back here now to everyday things and happy for the 10 day break before college reopens again.
Catching up on things will keep me happily busy.
Quiet times now since Diwali is just over. Thank God for ear-plugs. I have many of them. I used them and slept soundly.
Belated 
to you too!
In your life and living may there be more sparkle dazzle lights… and less noise!
Celebrate the lights in family, friends and people around you
Light up the lamps inside of yourself as well.
College reopens tomorrow… 16th Nov. I shall continue lighting lamps… and encourage others to do so as well.
Take care. Stay well. Drink more water. Light lamps.
Lots of love, Terry
