Back in Mumbai

Day before yesterday I had been to Mumbai to attend our TFI 09 fellows graduation and our end of the year summit.
The start for this journey was amazing and the entire trip has been full of surprise.
First surprise we had to get up in the non airconditioned bus during the period of summer at its peak.
Second the journey exceeded up to 6hours from 4 hours.
Third no arrangements for water or cold drinks in the auditorium.

We all felt like fools did journey for 6 hours and at the end got no water to drink.

But our amazing 09ers and kids with their awsome performances and talks took our pain and gave us immense satisfaction.
Mostly all the 10ers of us were there to stand up and give loud applause for what they believed on and what they did to bring CHANGE!

After biding adeu, we 10ners walked on our own way with much inspiration and sense of oneness for the first time.

I got the priviledge to be the guest of my best TFI friend Vikas bhai. Had amazing night to be there and talk about their class and scenerios in Mumbai.

Next day was our summit at Godreg's auditorium. It was gr8 to meet all and make some funny spoop of "Sheela ki jawani" song and to know the growth we brought upon in total.

                                          And then bidding adeu to our friends in Mumbai returned to Pune. Love Pune as the climate is so pleasnt.
