Good going everyone! Most of you have registered for the gItaa chanting!! A very handful few of you who did not register have requested to be registered as late registrants as well!! That has officially made us the class with most registrants!! Hurray! Keep it up kids! We are so proud of you. You are all doing the chanting so beautifully. Keep up the practice and arrive on time on the day of the competition, which is this coming Saturday 20th April. Participate with all your effort and attention. That itself makes all of you WINNERS! That calls for an ice-cream party in the summer!! Yay :).
Today is special for another reason! We finished learning all the chaupa-s of the hanumaan chaalIsa!! We see that most of you are learning by heart, as we are adding new chaupa-s. Now, you can finish learning all of them.
We then learnt about the story of the child who was building a sand castle. He hit a rock midway of his building. He tried with all his might, all possible ways to move it. When he couldn't, he was disappointed. His father asked him the reason for his droopy face and he explained that he had tried all possible ways. The father said, you apparently didn't try one - asking me! Similarly, when we hit a wall in our life circumstance, we struggle all we can, but forget one thing, asking for the Lord's help. When we seek Him, he instantly comes to our rescue and we will be rid of all obstacles, just as the little boy's father helped him move the rock!
After that, we had a combined class for the last half hour and we familiarized ourselves with our presentation. We will be practicing more next week as well. Keep up the good work everyone.
