THE YOUTH FEST 2015

Something worth spent.   Well the feeling, when you get exactly what you need in an affordable range when you want to buy something ,the feeling after a busy   day  by catching up with your old friend. The feeling of getting up early morning and realizing you are going to finish that long awaited task finally .Well this feeling of FULFILMENT I realized yesterday on 8th of August. We had this youth fest organized for our parish youth and I obviously was a part of it .

On a routine basis I have this fad of expressing something to you through reflection, stories , examples , but today I would love to present about this youth fest; which is more like a personal journal entry I agree .

Having I would use the word 'slaughtered'  by the harsh and temporal nature of time , people and life yesterday's youth fest worked out like an energy drink .While hope prevails and God’s love shines forever we are here  to experience life in bliss. Singing the action songs which we sang as kids , letting out frustrations as time paced while  we felt sleepy, yet in those dizzy hours believing that something really good will come out of this. Oh ! Those moments - Priceless .

When the  priests came over the altar and showered us with knowledge divine , it  felt really good . How can I forget the game sessions , letting the child come out of us , I am sure all of the parish youth thoroughly relished it . And then catching our breathe as we danced unendingly to the beat of ChartBusters.

Holding hands together  and praying , eating the dinner at 9:45 pm with three  Girlfriends beside and chatting about the most important things for us ! 'Our life '.

Going crazy and even more dizzy as our watches displayed 3 a.m. but still waiting and  as expected    it was worth the wait as we had a great time listening to something about us in the next talk . Adoration before the Blessed  Sacrament : the most ethereal moment of my life it would have been having prayed early morning kneeling down just before the Blessed Sacrament { not in  my home but in the church. }

And the sporadic breaks for energizing us and to keep us awake through out these holy hours , the MASALA TEA ! Splendid and indeed a pleasure it was .

I don't feel left behind , I don't feel empty or morose as the heavy shadows of life appear in disturbance because such pleasures are still alive in my life .We all do have SUCH MOMENTS , we just need to profoundly seek them and take time for making them count in our life .Deepa , Jewel ,Steffi who were a great company added to the beauty of my YOUTH FEST 2015.Loved it.THANK YOU LORD.
