Acknowledging oneself

In SELP we had this exercise of acknowledging onself & for most of us the distinctions lapse along with the course.

Yesterday when I met my friend Tim for a large cup of black tea, our favourite when we meet for these talks on spirituality, self growth etc. :-)

Was discussing about recent incidents in our lives. Tim applauded me on my efforts in solving one of my personal problems. The reason to commend was also on the fact that there were no residual feelings of hatred or underrating onself or anyone else but instead a feeling of confidence and great spirits.

I realised then I really had done a nice job :-) and acknowledged myself. Really felt exhilarted and understood the importance of acknowledgement in the SELP course!

SELP Project - Secondary Leaders

Last year we formed a group and started on the project of serving the old at an old age home. There were lot of hiccups but we did do some activities and when it looked the project is gonna pick up real good it all just stopped. There is silence from so many months.

I had to travel from my earlier job for a client meeting to Pune. Then had a personal visit to my in-laws at Delhi. Back to Bangalore, changed my job and traveled for a month to Sydney. This was enough to bring a hiatus and we just closed shop.

Deepak keeps calling me thinking that we would meet up and restart the activities. On Saturday Sid came home and he was like I am feeling so guilty about not going.

I was thinking what went wrong and how we can avoid it in future. If u r a landmarkian u would know what went wrong. We didnt have secondary leaders..so when i wasnt around everything stopped....a big full stop.

So now we plan to meet up and revive actvities and this time with a good rotation plan and passionate leaders as part of the group
