Bound by 'Bandhan'



There is something about the national anthem, something about the national song that leaves me filled with patriotism from deep inside and goosebumps outside.
It was absolutely worth getting up and running to the campus reception after having abt 3 hrs of sleep to see the flag being hoisted, to listen to the anthem.
But that was not all that made my day . Bandhan , an initiative by ISB , helps a few NGOs to bring in kids, challenged by poverty or by sight from various schools , here to ISB , to spend a day . Games and food and tom and jerry - the lawns the smiles, the tears, holding hands... I'd relive this day many times over if i could - i hope they felt the same.
