Today as I entered Sule High School I was greeted with flowers! :)
All the little children came running to me with white jasmine flowers in their hand! It was a beautiful surprise.
After all the other students arrived, we were told to go to our respective classes. Me and Meghan made our way to the 1st grade. I drew the football field on the board. We then told them how the team scores point and how one is suppose to move around the field.
We then got out on the playground to practice dribbling. We made them stand in a line and taught them the technique of how to kick to ball forward. I have never been much of a sports person. But after playing football I felt more lively and radiant. I realized that sports are a very integral part of our lives and I should engage myself in such activities.
When were were standing in the line, the wind was blowing because of which bits of plastic and papers were flying. And these children found it so fascinating that they began to jump and laugh in joy. Their innocence and ability to find happiness in small things made me wonder. I have so much a family, a house and all the possible pleasures anybody could ever ask for and still I ask for more. That is human nature I guess. But from now on, I am going to find happiness is small things. And thank god for bestowing upon me a wonderful and a happy life.
We played for an hour and then decided to call it a day.
It was a truly wonderful day. I taught them to play. And they taught me to see the happiness hidden in life's small, little, everyday things..or I would rather refer to them as gifts. :)
Until next time.. :)
