NGOs-Service Charge - Pretty Huge !

Since my childhood i was so fascinated about social work. I used to help my mother to write reports and take pictures of special children for sponsorship. I always smiled to see others smile, enjoyed playing with them. For almost 35 years she was a social worker but she was not a founder of an organisation but was part of a mission institution. There was no drastic economic development as she had to get the same amount of salary she received till her retirement.

After my mother i too studied social work, over the period, after my graduation I was able to meet many NGOs (Non-Government Organisation -charity), volunteer for them, and when i do so it was unpaid. Most of the times i realized that most of the charity here done for free lacks quality or competency. As I got the opportunity to work and meet many founders of NGOs i was quite surprised and questions started within me . Few thoughts that poured in was;

1. As many NGOs have come, there is duplication in addressing the issues and sadly nothing is completely addressed.
2. Because of many NGOs there is competition but this competition has not improved the quality of service.
3. The economic status of the founders of an Charity or NGOs hast flourished at pace that is not feasible in an high paying job even though the audit books says they get very minimum pay.

Who gets the major benefit the founders or the most needed, should the lifestyles of the founders be questioned ?

Aristotle's ideal man!

Aristotle and his philosophy has always inspired me, be it the organisation of science or about friends; he has always been able to strike some mutual chord of thinking .... As i was reading there were few saying on Aristotle's Ideal Man. I keep reading it again and again and made sure i will be able to mention each and every word when i tell to people about these lines.... "He does not expose himself needlessly to danger, since there are few things for which he cares sufficiently; but he is willing, in great crisis, to give even his life,-knowing that under certain conditions it is not worth while to live. He is of disposition to do men service, though he is ashamed to have a service done to him. To confer kindness it is a act of superiority, to receive one is an act of subordination..... He does not take part in public displays.. He is open in his dislikes and preferences, he talks and acts frankly, because for his contempt for men and things... He is never fired with ad

Travelling with the public transport!

"its peak time in the morning, I chose to get back to my basics , travelling in the public transport. As usual is sat in the first row near to the driver so that i get the view of the driver. During the travel i was able to see a small bicycle being peddled so fast by a small boy with his sister who seems to be elder than him, probably going to work. As this i s summer he should be on a holiday, all he did was chose to drop her sister in the bus stop because she was getting late,,,, it was so emotional to see the kid who was literally breathing so hard, sweating so much, waving his hand to his sister with a strong satisfied smile who was able to catch the bus and go on time. It was even more amazing was the driver too understood the effort of the kid and slowed down a bit to give credit to the small kids accomplishment  ... Sometimes we are so busy that our eyes are glued to our smart lifeless friend, ears tuned to the same,,,, and miss out on these small wonderful happiness that

Expectations- what is in for the experienced?

Expectations: Its one of the most pronounced words and results to be very expressive. But, this very expectation can seed million misunderstanding. I seriously believe that this word is very exclusive for the matured, for the ones who have understood the true meaning and expect things only from within, individuals who are profound in their thinking, one who feels character is the real treasure. How does this seed misunderstanding? When one expects from another and if he/she does not fulfill or if he/she does not do the way the other expected it ends in a sad note. This impact is highly determined by the nature of expectation and the kind of the person who expects. Relationships is often distorted, people often are left down with this very EXPECTATION.People who have really experienced will for sure accept my school of thought. What is the best way to EXPECT? I think the best way of exercising this is expecting things from within. Self competing, i personally feel that expectat
