starting my projects

Today is a great day for me. I went first to an orphanage run by the government and I talked with the superintendent, he was a nice man. He answered all my questions about the system of their work but the thing is he said that I can do nothing to help them unless I get a permission from the authorities. I find it a very stupid idea that one has to get permission to help orphans. Anyway I have to do things by their rules so I’ll do it (God willing). I was thinking that I can help in teaching them and also maybe to raise some funds to bring gifts and other stuff for the children there.

Next I went to a department of the ministry of education to talk to the chief there, I waited long but finally I got to meet him, he was nice too and I told him about my project to introduce ICT (information and communication technology) to schools, he was understanding and told me to submit officially the project to him and he will take it to the ministry of education and see if they approve it, the thing this time is money, he said the ministry don’t have sufficient funds.

I used to sleep all morning but this day I did something useful I hope and I think it’s much healthier to wake up early and I feel more active too.

I was postponing starting my work on these two projects, I don’t know why maybe because of laziness or fear from rejection. Anyway after reading Maitreeye’s updates I got motivated and so thank you so much Maitreeye.

Isn't annoying to have this great idea, and then hit the big wall called bureaucracy! Don't worry, I'm sure you'll find a way over it or through it or under it...

And I think everyone has the fear of rejection, but you just have to close your eyes and jump. I think that's the only way people have managed to change the world.

Good luck with what you are trying to do!

Thank you Helga and I agree with you, if we only do what we’re 100% sure will succeed then we’ll end up doing very little.

Best wishes.

Success in our vision of love
My hope is to experience success in our vision of global love as a global family.
I read something that inspired me the other day. I received an an email of an article and video clip of a famous basketball player. He mad a leap that was hard to believe! It was so high of the ground he appeared to be superhuman. He was asked how he got to be so good and his answer was..,."lots of failures". "Experiencing many failures and not giving up led me to success". I thought it was an interesting way of putting it,
