'Brand you'

Did u get impressed by the name..? 'Brand U',
hah ha..Me too.
Its jst a name of a self grooming session, which I attended last week.
Such an interesting session it was. (conducted by an organisation cald 'evolv', bangalore)

When I got a mail regarding the nomination for this training (1 week b4 this distinct event) I hesitated to nominate, then I thought twice, "wat might be this training for ?" the title spells good, ok lemme give a try. Finally I got it done by jst sending my nomination thru a mail.

The day also has come. Having two options in my hand I struggled a lot to decide. Ya I thought of enjoying the movie 'Madagascar' on the same day, Finally I decided to step into a place where they gonna groom me.

The session was very much interactive right from the introduction. Many things were taught, but the ultimate goal of the program is 'how to project yourselves in the society'. There it means 'Brand you'.

In between the session the tutor (Sanjeevani) narrated a story that taught me an excellent moral, which I would like to share @ this time...

Here comes the story which propelled me, and made me to think a while. Hope u too will get motivated.

THE DONKEY
One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway; it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey.

He invited all his neighbours to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well.At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement he quieted down.

A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well. He was astonished at what he saw.With each shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing.He would shake it off and take a step up.

As the farmer's neighbours continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and happily trotted off!

Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt.The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up. Each of our troubles is a steppingstone. We can get out of the deepest wells just by not stopping, never giving up!

Shake it off and take a step up.

p.s: Hey plz dont compare the donkey with this kid ya..
