lots can happen over a cup of coffee

(Recieved from Tanveer) Oh Nescafe! This is brilliant and humanizing. Alright, it’s time for a confession. Not many people know that I’ve struggled with stammering throughout my life. They are surprised when I tell them and I get comments like-“oh! But I never noticed..you speak perfectly fine”. Well, of course you didn’t notice because I’ve […]

Morning in Khandala

Took a walk to Shooting point and saw the sun struggling up the western ghats… I was not the only “early bird” , there were other participants up and about early in the morning…

Random acts of kindness…

This was a short address in Hindi by sachin to set the tone for the next three days ; an appeal to view stammering – and everything else in life – in a bigger picture – of finding fulfillment by serving others – not as a favor, but as a service to our larger Self. Here […]

Message was clear →every skill is  mastered through practice and stepping up the challenge constantly. Inauguration was done by Mrs Panchal, Jacquelin and Vipula.
