Love Warrior on a Tricycle
After polio, Raghu Makwana lost his legs. He had to walk with the support of his hands. A long time back, a few friends took a walk on the street with the inspiration to do a small act of kindness. After some searching, two of them saw Raghu arranging the shoes that people had left outside the temple. Given his condition, their first impulse was to do something for him, but when they conversed with him, they quickly realized that they were actually receiving a lot more than they could give him.

Never Quit
Day 2- Today I wrote a letter to a childhood friend after a long long time. He has been going through a very tough time and I reminded him of this poem which he used to share with me when we were kids:

when the funds are low and the debts are high
when you want to smile but you have to sigh
stick to the fight when you are hardest hit
it's when things go wrong when you should never quit."
