Thank you note!!!jus from my heart!!!

With the South pageant beginning I feel butterflies in my stomach waiting for my chance to perform. Waiting for East pageants to begin. I believe I can do it not because I am the extraordinary but because the kind of people I have met in life, the kind of books I have read, the experiences I have had. With each passing day I feel am growing each minute...The belief in me is growing stronger because of the blessings and guidance I am having now. For that I’m really grateful to god.

Thank you mummy and papa for bringing me into this beautiful world where there is so much to explore, learn and discover. Thank you for giving me the liberty to choose to do what I want to do in life. Mamma your undying faith in God has helped me to fight believe in the same and fight all the odds. Papa your simplicity,satisfaction,determination,strength of character and approach towards life amazes me and inspires me.

Thank you god for creating the opportunity for me to meet someone like Ritika Ma’am.I cannot put into words how thankful I am. Thank you ma’am for all your love and support,care,guidance,kindness,acceptance.You helped me to find the hidden qualities me and make my niche: to make my place in the world. Each time when the day unwinds from one problem to another I think of you and your saying that there is no such thing as bad day or good day, it is you who makes it into one.Your words rejuvenates me and helps me to unwind. You are the best mentor I could ever have. Love you ma’am.A small thank you might not make a difference but still Thanks for everything. You are my Godmother.

Nalini ma’am you are such a cute, innocent and caring soul that each time I’m with you I feel special. It makes my day when you say “bye bacha.All the best!!”Gosh!No one can ever imagine that now I’m so conditioned to it  that if I don’t hear it from you a part of me is apprehensive. Your patience, enthusiasm, and desire to grow in life are few things I have learnt.You are a true sweetheart.

Now is my rockstar: Saheba…WOW!!!God has perfect  planning for everything in life. Me getting closer to my pageants and she being my room mate helping me each moment I feel confused or doubtful. One has to meet her to believe me. She’s a complete rockstar,superstar.She’s the one who made me realize that there is enough for everyone in this world, you’ll also get your part of share just let life happen to. Each day I learn from her how to fall in love with myself. You made me realize the power of belief and visualization. Thank you baby doll my belief in me now is like the steel you were talking about and I can visualize myself.Saheba the only reason I want time to stop would be the fear of getting away from you. You are an angel, a fashionista,an inspiration. There are days when feel really low on my energy levels and feel drained completely but just the thought of you makes me smile and kick start the day then and there.

A Jewish saying goes like, “Who finds a faithful friend, finds a treasure." If this is true then I’m the richest person on this earth. The list will be never-ending because God has been kind to me for helping me find so many friends.Namita has to top the list. It’s difficult for me to put into words because despite of all the competition we are best of friends.

"Say hello to dirty li'll pAws!!!"

It’s not only children who want love but animals also need it. We as human beings at times fail to understand that even animals want the same love and affection as we do. They need nothing but our love, care and acceptance. People don’t mind getting a pedigree dog but ironically would look down and demean even the existence of a stray dog. There is nothing wrong in having a dog of a good breed but why not adopt a stray who needs a shelter, who is so desperate to be loved that would lie down on the ground if called with love, who needs nothing but just our acknowledgement and acceptance into our lives.

They say charity begins at home and I adopted a stray dog on 4^th November 2006 and named her as Honey. She helped me to grow as a human being in life. She made me realize that stray dogs are nothings less than pure breed dogs.

She is as intelligent and courageous as a German shepherd and as playful as a German spitz.It is very easy to maintain her because she is easily adaptable to the climatic changes and hence is healthier. Animals have been man’s best friend for times immemorial. And honey changed the meaning of life to me and taught me how to love unconditionally and selflessly.

Approximately 4 million adoptable dogs & cats are killed each year mainly due to overpopulation. 25-30% of dogs for adoption in animal shelters are purebred. The other 70-75%, of course, are lovable, wonderful mixed-breed pets, just waiting for a chance to be your perfect new friend. Many backyard dog breeders and pet stores who supply the majority of purebreds simply are selling inbred pets without care for preventing genetic problems. Mixed breed pets have less inbreeding, generally less inherited genetic disease, and therefore overall lower vet bills. If you have your heart set on a specific breed, before you check out a dog breeder or pet store, why not adopt a pet from a breed rescue organization? Breed rescues are groups that specialize in a particular breed of dog or cat.

I hope that after reading this article whenever you see a pup or a dog with dirty paws you will not shoo it away with disgust but acknowledge it with love. Next time you think of adopting a dog then let it be a stray because it needs it more that anyone else.Let’s make a difference. Robert Frost once said “Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired”. So Lets spread the message of love and let start adoption as the new way of life...
