Taking people for granted is something we do often. But still
those people continue to care for us in every way possible without any sign of
complaint. Samarthan, the social service club at IFMR, helped us in giving back
the concern we receive each day from those who constantly work towards making
our life better; and hence came the realization to lend some smiles to those who
spend their lives for us. The Worker’s day was celebrated in the college
premises in honour of the supporting staff of the college ,be it the mess
workers or the security personnel. A day dedicated to making their moments
special and their happiness matter the most. The event comprised of various
games like tailing the donkey, bursting balloons tied to each other’s legs and
lots more. Age saw no seams and neither did vigor; all that mattered was the
delight each face held. Students, apart from the commendable Samarthan team,
from both batches contributed in the success of the event by various means like
decoration, participation and provision of gifts. Music was the soul of the day
which made even the eldest of the workers tap their feet to the rhythm. Gifts
were distributed as a small token of appreciation of the commitment these
people show in their daily life. But as all good things come to an end, so did
this memorable day, which left each of us with a smile on our face borne out of
the sheer joy of giving. It is said “ Live and let live” but Samarthan taught
us “Live and give back”. Another great lesson from Life@IFMR.
